Damper Recipe.

I was instructed by a number of students to place this on the blog tonight! I'm guessing they liked the recipe.

Also - A huge THANK YOU to all the parents who helped out today. Without your assisatnce we could only have done half of the activities, which would have been a shame given how much the kids seem to enjoy the day. I/we hope you enjoyed your day with us!

Damper
Another name for damper is Takakau (Old Man’s Bread). Traditionally, the Australian swaggie baked damper over an open fire and spread golden syrup over it.
Recipe:
2 ½ cups of flour 2 ½ teaspoons of baking powder 1 ¼ cups of milk

1. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Add the milk to form firm dough.
3. Knead the dough on a well floured surface for 5 minutes.
4. Roll out into a circle about 1cm thick.
5. Cook on BBQ (with butter) -5 minutes on each side.
(In an oven bake at 200 degrees C for 10 minutes)
