Cooking on the road sometimes isn't that easy. We collected some great autumn recipes to match the season so that you don't have to live on canned ravioli and muesli.
Porridge with pears, cinnamon and walnuts
Porridge is the perfect camping recipe. You only need two ingredients: Oatmeal, milk (vegan dairy products also work, of course) or water. This breakfast is super quick and easy to prepare on the camping cooker. The oatmeal fills you up for a long time and gives you plenty of energy for your camping trips. And the best thing is: you can enrich porridge with an endless selection of toppings and get creative. Here's how it works:
Ingredients for 2 servings:
80 g oats
250 ml milk, soy drink or oat milk
150 ml water
Oil
2 pears
Walnuts
Honey and cinnamon to refine
Simply put the oats in a pot and roast them on medium heat for about 2 minutes. Then add milk and water and let the porridge simmer for about 10 minutes, while stirring constantly.
Wash the pears and then cut them into small cubes. After about 5 minutes of cooking simply stir the pear pieces into the porridge and finish cooking together.
Finally, season the porridge with honey and cinnamon and refine with the walnuts as a topping. Done!
Pasta with pumpkin and chanterelles
Autumn is pumpkin time. Did you know that botanically speaking, pumpkins are actually fruits? Just like tomatoes, courgettes or cucumbers they belong to the berry family. The pumpkin is very versatile and convinces in the most diverse autumn recipes, from the classic pumpkin soup to pumpkin risotto and unusual desserts. But it's not just pumpkin that's in harvest season, mushrooms are too. Together they make a great autumn recipe for your camping holiday:
Ingredients for 2 servings:
1/4 butternut squash
100g chanterelles
1 red onion
10 sage leaves (fresh)
20g parmesan (vegan: yeast flakes)
100 ml whipping cream (or vegan cooking cream)
180 g orecchiette pasta (other types of pasta also possible)
4 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper
1 garlic clove
Boil the pasta in salted water according to the package instructions and save some of the cooking water when you drain it. In the meantime, the "chopping work" is waiting for you: peel the pumpkin, halve it, remove the seeds and cut into small cubes. Also clean the chanterelles and cut them into pieces. Peel and finely dice the onion and garlic. Wash the sage, shake dry and pluck off the leaves.
Once you've done all of this, heat some oil in a frying pan and fry the sage leaves over a medium heat for approx. 2 min until crispy and then drain on a paper towel.
Add the remaining olive oil to the same pan and fry the onions and garlic for approx. 3 min. Add the pumpkin and fry for approx. 5 min. Add the chanterelles and cooking water (approx. 35 ml per person). Cook until the water evaporates and the pumpkin is soft. Add more cooking water if needed. Mix in the cream and pasta and season with salt and pepper. Finally, serve the pasta with pumpkin and chanterelles with Parmesan cheese and crispy sage leaves and enjoy your meal!
Tasty sandwiches for in between
Here's a great autumn recipe with mushrooms for the cravings in between. Have you ever picked mushrooms yourself? Wild mushrooms such as porcini and chestnuts are in season from late summer to autumn. But you should inform yourself well beforehand about which species are edible. This snack is super quick and all you need is a frying pan. We'll show you how it works:
Ingredients for 2 servings:
2- 4 slices of bread
2 hands full of rocket (or any other salad)
2 tablespoons of mushroom/walnut pesto (any other pesto will do, of course)
2 mushrooms
1 plum (nectarine, pear, fig or peach will also do)
4 slices of blue cheese
Briefly fry the mushrooms in oil and with a lot of heat in a pan. Then fry the bread in butter on low heat for about 1-2 minutes. Then you can start stacking the mushrooms.
First spread the pesto on all the slices with a spoon, then put the rocket on top, then add the mushrooms and the finely chopped plum. Season with salt and pepper and finally put the blue cheese on top. That's it! Up to this point, the autumn recipe is still vegetarian. But variations with chicken, bacon or game are also highly recommended.
