About Me

Welcome to the new Campervan Chef blog! This started out life as a blog called 'Kylie's Kitchen' and ran out of steam some time ago. Since then life has changed and Kylie's Kitchen as it stood is no more. I started out as an an enthusiastic home cook but now work as a chef and cook for others in all sorts of situations. You'll find out more about this side of me if you keep tabs on my scribbles on here. I blog about food and cooking, life, family, friends and pets. I will also be keeping you up to date with our travels to our second home; the beautiful Greek island of Skiathos and the dog shelter we support there. Join us as our journey through life continues...

Toad in the Hole

The Woo's dad is over for supper tonight and staying the night in the newly painted guest bedroom.  We've promised him eggs and bacon courtesy of the girls tomorrow morning and have decided on Toad in the Hole this evening.  Poor Arthur will be egg-bound by Thursday!

The batter is resting in the fridge as we speak.  For the batter I always use the same 1-3-5 ratio of ingredients; for every one egg I use three ounces of plain flour and five fluid ounces of milk.  Sam's back for a few days so there are four of us eating and I've decided on a three egg batter.  I will leave you to work out the rest!  Whenever I make more than a two egg mix I always stick in an extra yolk for a bit more richness.  The biggest batch of batter I ever made was recently at the luncheon club I help out at and it was a 10 egg batter...all hand whisked by me!  I was completely knackered!!

We have gone for pork sausages from Hadlow Farm Shop.  We went in yesterday to get some of their yummy Pembury Porkers but they were all sold out so went for the plain bangers as an alternative.

More in a bit.  Got to get these bangers on the go!
