    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!

    Very nice and easy to make. I added fresh small tomatoes when I served it which worked out very well.

    Great thanks. I had no carrot so replaced with sweet potato which worked fine.

    I think this would be really nice with coconut milk added. I had some spare broccolini and fresh asparagus in the fridge so added that also.

    This is really yummy. I have been making dahl  (lentil curry) for years, but this is the first time in the thermomix. I added 15g of fresh ginger in with the garlic, carrot and onion (I only used 1/2 an onion) I also upped the spices so had 2 teaspoons of garam masala, and added 2 teaspoons of cumin as well. Will definitely make again and sometimes i will omit the spinach.....it would taste just as good!
