I always take a couple of sticks of Salami (or some such preserved
meat). I fry it up over my trangia, boil up some spiral noodles,
strain the noodles, mix into the frypan, add some tomato paste (tooth
paste style tubes avail in most grocery stores), and add some cheese (
I use a cheese that comes in a wheel about the diameter of a CD, and
it is cut into wedges covered in foil, it doesn't go off in the heat)
Fry it all up for a while and bingo. Very filling meal. I've lived off
this for a week, whilst exploring MT Bartle Frere and surounds. It's
light weight and all the ingredients are fairly robust and don't
perish easily. I particularly like a variety of Salami's etc because I
like meat, but it is often hard to carry unless tinned, and then it's
just a pain (heavy and creates rubbish)

Ian,
You might try looking in the latest issue of WILD magazine (No.67 Jan -
Mar). There is an article about food for the bush.
WILD also published a pocket guide called "Cooking for the Bush" which
came with one of their previous issues. Page 29 of the latest issue
will tell you how to get one.
Bon Apetite

Mmmmmm - food.
My first rule is to take good ingredients. Since you can only carry so
much, you may as well make the weight worth it, right?
It's nice to have a meal that only takes one pot to cook. You can eat it
straight out of the pot as well. I use one saucepan and a pocket-sized
gas camping stove.
Ingredients :
Around half a cup of Arborio Superfino rice (risotto rice) per person
Twice as much water as rice
Vegetables
Stock cube/s
Use whatever vegies you like. Leeks are good - zuchinni, squash,
whatever. Dried mushrooms probably keep well.
First - cut up the vegies and fry them in butter or oil. Then add the
rice and stir it in. This warms the rice & coats it in oil.
Then add the water and the stock cube/s. Bring it to the boil, then cook
it on a low heat until the water is absorbed, stirring occasionally.
Grate some parmesan cheese on top if you have some handy.
Eat. It's good.
