Recipe's preparation

  1. Soak the dried apricots in one cup of water for around and hour

    Slice a cross on the bottom of the tomatoes and cover in a bowl with boiling water and peel when cool - the skins will slip off

    Add onion and garlic, ginger and chillis to bowl - chop 6 seconds, speed 5, scrape down bowl with spatula and repeat

    Add oil and cook 2 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 1

    Add spices and cook 2 minutes, 100 degrees, speed 1

    Add tomatoes and apricots and the water cook 15 minutes, 100 degrees, reverse, spoon MC off Basket on top

    Add chicken and cook 12 minutes, 100 degrees, reverse, spoon, stir with spatula through the hole half way through MC off basket on top

    If you wish to thicken the sauce a little, mix one heaped teaspoon of corn flour with a little water to make a runny paste - add to the bowl and stir with spatula - then cook 2 minutes, 100 degrees, reverse, spoon

    Serve with boiled rice with added grated carrot and slivered almonds and if you wish some raisins  ---- Enjoy

Tip

Short cut --- while the onions and spices are cooking peel and slice the tomatoes as you have the time

When the base curry is cooking slice the chicken

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!
