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!

YUM! Thank you
I doubled sauce too. I added pineapple and capsicum. Delish!!!
Absolutely delicious. I used turkey mince and added coriander and ginger to meatballs instead of 5 spice. I increased the water to 1000g and steamed 300g Rice in steaming basket and put some capsicum sliced beans sliced onions and fresh pineapple in the deep varoma tray while steaming the meatballs on varoma/sp3/20 mins. Absolutely lovely. Thanks for the recipe.
Love this recipe.
This was a hit with our 1 yo and 4 yo. I served it with mashed potato and sweet potato, which I steamed in the basket whilst cooking the meatballs, and extra steamed broccoli. The ginger in the meatballs was lovely! This will make it into our monthly meal plan for sure.
Made this last night after seeing it on Facebook. Double the sauce and used chicken instead of pork ~ AMAZING!! Not sure where all the spice came from but it was good. Hubby loved it
Made this tonight after someone mentioned it on the FB page - I did the same as Alkitt in terms of capsicum and pineapple, and tripled the quantities for the sauce so had plenty of that... It was a little spicy for my kids as the only sweet chilli sauce I had was a spicy variant, but I loved it!! Thank you!
This was a hit with the family but I would definitely add vegetables next time.
This recipe is delicious! I used chicken breast instead of pork, and I steamed my rice in the steaming basket while I was steaming the meatballs in the Varoma. I also added French coriander to the meatball mix. Very yummy! Thanks for the great recipe!
Very yummy! I added chopped capsicum with the onion and a small, drained tin of pineapple pieces to the sauce and the whole family loved this. Will certainly make this again.
