Hello!

I love solar cooking – its almost unbelievable how well it cooks even on winter’y days!

I’ve been using the Sun Cook solar oven for a few years now – it’s even gone around Australia with me. Now I’m importing them from Europe so they can be sold in Australia.

The website is http://www.SunCooking.com.au

They reason the Sun Cook is so excellent is that it’s got double glazed glass – traps the heat much better. It’s also got wind resistant panels that don’t flap around and has a large cooking space that can accommodate a few pots at once (I often have a soup and bread or rice and curry going simultaneously).

I sell them a fair bit cheaper than the commercial alternative because I just really want to see Solar ovens getting use in Australia – we are one of the sunniest countries in the world – we’re made for solar cooking!

Get in touch if you want to chat about solar ovens in Australia – info@SunCooking.com.au

Great video! I’ve owned and cooked in a solar oven from Sun Oven International. I’m here in the US in the state of Colorado. Love the sun! I’m grateful for it. I’m really interested in getting a parabolic cooker. Any suggetions on where to look? Thanks for posting this video!

Great story! I bought a Rohitas Tulsi solar oven and have been surprised at how well it cooks – even in the middle of winter.

To cook a dinner, I prepare the ingredients the night before and put it out in the morning before leaving for work. By the time I return home at night the food has been slow cooking for 9 hours and is still hot – even if the sun has set.

The best meals are usually the classic slow cooking recipes like Osso buco, beans, chilli etc.
