James concocted some truly tasty meals while we were camping. The combination of cooking outdoors on a tiny camping stove and access to fresh ingredients made all the difference. This is a two-part meal of cooked prawns and stuffed bell peppers that James named after our campsite, Camping du Soleil.
“Prawns du Soleil”

Part 1:

prawns (smaller pack of large prawns)
1 tomato (chopped)
6 mushrooms (quartered)
1 clove of garlic (minced)
basil
salt and pepper
olive oil, to cook

Cook garlic and mushrooms a few minutes until softened. Add prawns, then seasonings. Add tomato and cook until tomato is soft.

Part 2:

1 red pepper (halved and de-seeded)
1/4 baguette (ripped up into small pieces)
olive oil
1 clove of garlic (minced)
basil
salt and pepper

Char the pepper halves over a flame or in a pan. Combine bread, garlic, herbs and oil in a bowl. Stuff the mixture into the pepper and serve with the prawns.

C'est magnifique.
