Tip

This dish utilises the full capacity of the TM5. To ensure that you don't go over the maximum fill line, add the water last and adjust as needed. You can always add the remaining water after it has been cooking for a few minutes.

You can easily adapt this recipe as vegetarian dish and it would still be very yummy!

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    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!

    Loved it, added a few rashes of bacon.  Made it in my TM31, with 400g chicken.  I roasted the pumpkin and folded in  at the end  Will use this as my preferred chicken risotto from now on.   Thanks again for sharing.

    Yum! A dash of natural yoghurt and somefresh coriander on top rounds this off nicely.

    Next time I'm going to throw in some sultanas.

    Probably not as you need the water for the rice.

  • 31. May 2016 - 17:25

    Awesome, cant wait to give it a try! Would i reduce the amount of water as well?

    Hi Mandy, You could try the recipe with less of the meat and veggies. Say 300g chicken, 80g tomatoes, 150g pumpkin and 300g chickpeas. Alternatively if you wanted the same amount of food, you could steam the pumpkin in the varoma above or roast it in the oven. The main thing is not to overfill the max fill line. You can add water during the cooking if you need to. Let me know how you go tmrc_emoticons.)  Cheers, El

    How would I adapt this recipe to suit a TM31? Thanks tmrc_emoticons.)

    Made this for dinner tonight.  Really flavoursome.  Added baby spinach at the end of the cooking process.  Served with natural yoghurt. Delicious.  Will make again.
