    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!

    It was a very quick and easy soup to make however it didn't have enough flavour. If I was to make it again, I would add more vegetables.

    Made this just now. Substituted guar gum for the flour because I wanted to skip any unnecessary carbs, and subbed in zucchini for the tomato and celery because I didn't have them. Only used spring onions.

    Delicious!!! Moving this to my regular rotation. Thank you!!

    DELICIOUS !!! .... and HEALTHY !!! .... LOVED the egg strands !!!! .... I doubled the recipe and used cherry tomatoes cos they were on special !! .... I used vegetable stock so it was vegetarian, though the egg strands made you feel like it has chicken in it .... I tried it both with and without the sesame oil .... both were nice .... will definitely be making again .... great recipe
