Camp Kitchen Recipes
Delicious Pad Thai
This traditional Thai dish comes straight from the street food vendors of Bangkok, offering incredible flavours and textures. It’s not something you often see cooked in a camping pot but this simple recipe is sure to be a favourite at the campsite.
Pad thai with pork is a traditional option, but try substituting it for a different type of meat to reinvent the dish with a new flavour. You can also use tofu or leave out the pork to make a vegetable pad thai.
