CHICKEN, PUMPKIN, SWEET POTATO & ZUCCHINI RISOTTO
Tip
If you prefer a smoother consistency, take the risotto out of the bowl, add the pumpkin and sweet potato & then re-add the risotto, this should mash the two on the bottom but only very slightly. Also, if you prefer to use the butterfly whisk, put it in step 4 just prior to step 5

Recipe is created forTM 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!

I’ve never been a massive fan of thermie risotto but this one was very tasty - even when omitting the cream.
Unfortunately after 16 minutes my pumpkin was cold, hard and uncooked. Wonder why
Thanks for the recipe anyway
I found this a bit flavourless in all honesty. It needs something else, herbs & spices, maybe dill or parsley. Not sure. I will definitely make again as I liked it & it wad super easy but will add some herbs & spices next time. Oh and TIP make sure you grate the parmesan first!
Yummy, have made it twice in two days - it was that popular!
Made this for my family and it was beautiful. Awesome well done.
Makes so much which is great for a family. Roasted the pumpkin and added fried bacon at end instead of chicken.
Loved this and so did my family. My pumpkin and sweet potato were cooked adequately. I added some baby spinach in the Thermoserver and stirred it through. Will definitely make again.
This was delicious! I added broccoli at the zucchini stage and didnt add the cream.
A very nice risotto.
made plenty for everyone and had left overs to freeze for my toddlers daycare lunches.
saved to favourites. Thank you for the awesome recipe
