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!

    Very easy to make and so tasty on our kransky hot dogs. I used all red onions and reduced the sugar as suggesfed. Perfect

    Just so yummy. I had an oversupply of onions, so made up four batches of this last night. I ran out of 'normal' balsamic for the last batch and used raspberry infused balsamic...amazing! I reduced the sugar in all batches to 50g but easily could reduce it further. Thank you for such an easy peasy but totally delicious recipe. Christmas hamper must have I think.

    So easy & tasty and agree just slice onion & reduce sugar to half - you can also try adding bacon bits and/or a dash of maple syrup or caremalised balsamic vinegar for extra flavour

    Super easy and so delicious. Cooks down to approximately 1.5 to 2 cups. I used all red onions which I thickly sliced as per previous comment and cut back a little on the sugar. Tastes amazing dollopped on hot homemade pizza or accompanied with a good steak. Will definitely try a double mix next time. Warning: open all your windows while cooking!

    mrsK6: I have doubled and I have halved. Both a huge success.

    Greatness is upon YOU.  Act like it!

    Great recipe. Lovely on Steak Sandwiches. After reading the comments I halved the sugar and used all red onions. The sweetness was just right and delicious.

    Hi Larisa, I'm not sure if anyone has answered your question yet, but just in case ... no, all the cooking is done in the TM bowl.  The "Varoma" mentioned in the recipe is the cooking temperature.  Hope this helps tmrc_emoticons.)

    Hello everybody! I am new to Thermomix but not new in the kitchen tmrc_emoticons.)

    So I have this question - do I transfer onions from TM bowl into Varoma simmering busket at some point?
