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!
Comments
Just didn't quite click.
Sliced the pork thinner after seeing the comments, and was cooked using these timeframes. I also put the capsicum in earlier.
However, the balance of smokiness and sauce was out, even after using yoghurt to even out texture, but overall the flavour don't have a depth of flavours for the family.
Had been looking forward to this meal, but was disappointed.
I agree with previous comment, that it would have been better cooked on stove top or oven. Capsicum was raw, overall I felt the dish was not hot enough, probably because of the short cooking time. It tasted like raw onion to me. Will not make again.
I think this recipe is more suited to stovetop. The stew was very tasty, but capsicum wasn't cooked. Pilaf was tasty, but broccolini needed longer than cauliflower.
I only made half the quantity and didn't adjust times at all.
I'd make this again, but would do the sauce in the Thermomix and cook the stew on the stove or slow cook. I'd still steam the pilaf, but would put cauliflower on top of broccolini (and I'd add asparagus in last few minutes).

Tasty recipe
Just made this today and the family loved it. I made some adjustments to suit our tastes and added a little sugar - I think it just lifts any currie or stew. I also slow cooked the parpika pork for one hour in the oven on 160 before serving as I had made the dish in the afternoon. It was perfect and not overcooked. Delicious.
I liked the flavour of this dish but unfortunately my pork was tough and the cauliflower was very watery.. and that was after I cooked it for less time.
I only made the cauliflower pilaf, tasted great and was easy. Great way to try something new with cauliflower for a change.
Surprised my partner with this meal tonight (I am not a great cook so this was a surprise). The house smelled incredible and the taste was simply amazing (and feeling pretty proud of myself). This was fun to prepare and easy to follow. Thank you for the experience.
Very delicious
Loved it. Might use little less paprika next time
