Recipe's preparation

    PIE FILLING
  1. Make the filling:

    Add 1100 mls of water to the jug

    Add vanilla paste, cloves, lemon, cinnamon stick, star anise, orange peel into water in jug.

    Peel and core quinces, and cut into quarters, then slices.

    Put into a bowl of water as you peel and slice to avoid browning of fruit.

    Insert steaming basket and place sliced fruit in basket.

    Place varoma on lid for duration of cooking.

    Cook quince for 1 - 1.5 hours on Varoma - Speed 1.5.

    Half way through cooking check level of liquid and add another 100 mls of water if needed.

    (After cooking the liquid should be reduced to a thicker, reddish syrup, and the quince should have turned a beautiful pinky colour)

    You can poach Quince the day ahead and leave it to sit in the syrup, in a bowl.

     

     

    Pre heat oven to 190 degrees Celsius

Tip

You can use a combination of Quince and Apple if preferred.

Poach the fruit a day or two beforehand, so the flavours and colours intensify.

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!
