    in other posts (including on the lifestyle forum) watso has mentioned his solar cooking attempts .. the following pic gives a good idea of watso's system - except that the cooking is done in a frypan - with a glass lid over it - set in a tyre, with another glass lid over the tyre




    previous cooking was done with smaller amounts in a smaller frypan - but this time watso is attempting to cook a family sized meal .. the ingredients are as follows

    about 1.4kg of boneless chicken thighs
    1 large onion
    half a kg of tomatoes
    some herbs
    jar of rogan josh...

    watso is ashamed to admit that he paid 80c for a single large onion - but onions seem to be in short supply .... the chicken cost just a bit over $3 (was 80% rtc) .. anyway the total cost of all of the above was sub $10 (closer to $7.50) ..

    anyway, watso checked the temperature of the food - not long ago - and the temperature was 50C ... that was about 11.45am perth time .

    mmm at 50C , all the harmful bacteria would be multiplying at an alarming rate - so hopefully the temperature will rise sufficiently to kill all those nasties
