Recipe is created forTM 5
If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

I love this recipe. I have made it twice and plan to make it this week too. Thank you. I have it with the Lo-cal noodles. It's delicious.
My local woolies is out of raw prawns though
can I just put fish in?
I have made alterations where i realised i had forgotten to put in
"Counter-clockwise operation" Where applicable
Fantastic recipe, yummy and definitely will be making again. Thank you for sharing
Easy and tasty. I used the really really skinny rice noodles but would be nicer with slightly chunkier ones
annoy:
Yay so glad you like it! Its a fave in our house
jaynebuckley:
You could probably just leave them out, im not 100% sure with alternatoves to nuts. Would still be delious
Can this be made with some sort of replacement for the nuts as my son is anaphylaxic to all nuts
Thank you for this great recipe, cooked last night as per instructions using just prawns and wow it was amazing so it has been added to my long list.
