    Recipe is created for
    TM 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!

    This was delicious. I had been given a heap of broad beans which I'm not usually a fan of, but were delicious in this. I didn't have any apple juice or white balsamic vinegar so used lemon juice and normal balsamic vinegar. Absolutely delicious. Smile

    I made this last night, but tweeked it a bit. I don't like steamed meat and usually need more flavor to my veggies, so I cooked my chicken in a pan and steamed the pumpkin to almost done, then put it in the oven with a little olive oil and roasted them. I used a Balsamic Vinegarette for my dressing and used Edename Beans instead of broadbeans. Was perfect for a summer dinner. Next time might add some fetta cheese..... yum!!

    Delicious! I loved that it was different and had so many textures but thought it took awhile because of all the components. I used extra chicken. Loved the dressing.

    I made this recipe on the weekend. It was yummy. I have been putting broad beans in my salad ever since. I did double the chicken though. The spice rub was really good and I had enough leftover to put on chicken Brest that I steamed a couple of days later.
