    This is quite a dry curry, if you like your curries a little more watery, add  some more passata.

    Meanwhile, cook the rice and pappadums. The healthiest way to cook these is spray them with canola oil spray, and microwave for 1 minute and 10 seconds.

Tip

The chicken will shred, if you prefer chunky chicken add the butterfly whisk.

Any vegetable can be used, as long as they are chopped smallish, the pumpkin does break down and adds to the thickness of the puree. I throw in whatever vegetables that are 0 smart points.

For additional flavour, chopped coriander is a lovely addition. Enjoy tmrc_emoticons.) 

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!
