Have the troop and patrol leaders' council plan for
a big fish fry for all Scouts and guests at the Dad-
and-Son Fish Derby to end the afternoon. While
your Scouts may catch fish during the derby, it's un-
likely that enough will be caught to feed the whole
group, so be sure a supply of fresh fish is ready and
waiting.
On this page are a few ideas for preparing the meal.
Kala Mojka
The name means "winter stew" in Finnish, and this
recipe is a favorite at the Region 10 Wilderness Canoe
Base. This recipe will feed 8 to 10 persons.
Use the large pot in the Trail Chef Kit and fill with
water up to the rivets. Bring water to a boil. Add 2
cups dehydrated potatoes, % cup rice and boil until
soft. Then add 1 diced onion, large chunks of fish and
boil until soft and remove from fire. Add the following:
can of tomato paste, can of peas, % cup of white flour,
% cup milk, 2 tbsps. butter, and salt and pepper to
taste.
Pan-Fried Fish
Heat margarine, butter, cooking oil, or bacon grease
in frying pan to make Vs -inch-deep pool. Coat fish with
seasoned flour and fry until golden brown on both
sides. Rock the pan now and then to prevent sticking.
Planked Fish
Use an unseasoned chunk of wood or log cut at least
an inch thick and wide enough to hold a spread fish.
Avoid resinous woods—poplar, maple, hickory, and
oak are good. Fillet the fish, but don't cut the two sides
apart. Then nail or wire the fillets to the plank and
stand it in the heat of the fire. If you can hold your
hand in front of the fish without great discomfort for
a few seconds, the heat is about right. Cooking will
take about 15 minutes; turn the log once or twice to
make sure the fish is cooked evenly.
END YOUR DERBY s«—dFish
FISH
WITH A
FRY
This is the simplest way to cook trout. Cut a stick
and make a point at one end for each fish—about 4
inches longer than the fish. Tie fish to the stick at tail
and gills, with the head toward the point. Push stick
into shallow coals until head is partly covered. Steam
about 10 minutes.
