Especially welcome are such outings to the forest or to the reservoir, if you live in a huge city and even give yourself a dacha you can not. Well, of course, no such trip does not do without a good picnic, because the appetite is in the fresh air, and after the active movement the wolf is played out. But what recipes are better for this to choose and what can you cook for a picnic in nature, and will discuss now.
How to organize a picnic in nature, in the forest or near the sea?
Before choosing a menu for a picnic in nature, let's compose a reminder of the necessary things. So, going to a picnic in the forest or on the shore of the reservoir do not forget:
- Fixtures for cooking (BBQ, barbecue, skewers, charcoal, flint or matches, liquid for ignition).
- Disposable kitchen accessories (plastic utensils, paper napkins and towels).
- Water (not only for drinking, but also for washing hands and objects).
- First Aid Kit.
- Entertaining subjects (ball, rackets for tennis or badminton, dominoes, armor, etc.).
- Litter.
And now we turn to the recipes of the dishes for our picnic.
Shish kebab in Surkov style
Without a juicy fragrant shish kebab, not a single picnic in nature. Here is a wonderful recipe, easy to prepare and very tasty.
Ingredients:
- pork - 1 kg;
- lemons - 2-3 pieces;
- onion -1-2 pieces;
- salt - 50 g;
- fragrant and black pepper peas, bay leaf.
Preparation
Meat cut into pieces the size of a matchbox and salt. Onion peel and cut into rings or semirings. Lemons are washed and squeezed juice from them using a juicer. Then lay the layers in the enameled pan in the following order: the lowest one is a piece of meat, then a few peppercorns and leaves of bay leaves, then a layer of onions, again meat, spices and onions. We do this until the food runs out. Lastly, you should pour lemon juice (it should be enough for the entire height of the layers laid out). The whole structure should be loaded, covering the future shish kebab with a lid or a smaller dish of the pan and putting on it some weight, for example, a half-liter jar of water. Marinated shish kebab will be about 12 hours. Keep this in mind when collecting.
Fish at the stake
This is an excellent answer to the question of what to cook for a picnic in nature, if one of your relatives does not eat meat. The recipe for ugliness is simple. We take any fish, clean it from the scales and entrails, salt and wrap it in foil, or in a heat-resistant wrapper, or simply into a burdock leaf. Wrapping is well moisturized, it is necessary. Then dig in the fish package in the coals, and from above we plant a small additional fire. After 10-12 dishes is ready.
Sandwiches "A la delicious"
Another great recipe for a picnic in nature is hearty sandwiches with vegetables and sprats. For cooking, you need a cut loaf, a sprat can, a bag of garlic mayonnaise, fresh cucumbers and tomatoes. We cut the loaf into slices and grease them with mayonnaise. From above put on a slice of cucumber and tomato. And on them - sprats. Delicious sandwiches are ready.
Baked potato
The easiest option, bake potatoes in hot coals, as in childhood. But it is possible and to dream up. We will clear 12 pieces of potatoes, cut them in half, salt them and put a thin piece of butter between the halves. We take a large sheet of foil, we will place our workpiece in 3 rows of 4 potatoes on it and wrap it in a sealed bag. Bundle the burying in hot coals, and on top of it, and a small firebrick lighted. After 40 minutes you can get it. And while the potatoes are baked, engage in mobile games. And one more piece of advice, it is better to prepare this stock at home, because you will not be able to take butter with you.
Salad "Zelenka"
And here's what you can cook for a picnic as a salad. Take on a bunch of different varieties of onion, parsley, dill and lettuce, boil to them with a dozen eggs. Greenery and eggs cut smaller, podsalivaem and fill with a spoon of oil or mayonnaise, or you can do without refueling. Outdoors. yes with a shish kebab - the most it.
This is just a small fraction of what can be cooked for a picnic in nature. Fantasize, change the composition of the ingredients, pick up something of your own, and your trek into the forest or river will be the most unforgettable event.
