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!

Tasty and easy to make. Will definitely make again.
Great salad, the whole family loved it. Great to pack for school/work lunches. Will be making this one again.
Really enjoyed this meal. We don't usually eat brown rice but we felt very healthy eating this and we enjoyed the flavours. The recipe was easy to follow and it was an easy mid-week meal. I used chicken thighs. Thanks for sharing.

Really yummy. Makes a huge amount! I shredded the chicken, personal preference. Will definitely make again.
