Tip
Thermomix Model

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!

Followed the recipe but risotto turned out very sloppy even with doubling the cooking time in step 7 and leaving the risotto to sit for 10 mins. Had good flavour but too runny for my liking.
Perfectly cooked and full of flavour! I made a few amendments - replaced can tomatoes with fresh roma tomatoes, used dried basil and doubled the cooking time in step 6 as the rice was undercooked. After serving, If you're a cheese lover like me sprinkle some mozzarella over the top whilst still hot/warm and stir through. Absolutely delicious!
