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!

    Every single person at the table loved this meal - easy & quick - majority of things already in the pantry. Only had to shop for the lemongrass and chilli. Great flavours and not overly hot with spice, just right for me (with lame tolerance for chilli lol)

    The curry was very nice however it was very salty which we presume was due to the recipe using salted cashews and 80 gm fish sauce. We will reduce the amount of fish sauce next time and try again.

    This was quick and easy and really enjoyable! I didn’t have bay leaves so used kaffir lime leaves. Red chilli instead of green and mixed seafood rather than prawns. All substitutes worked well. My only query is quantity of fish sauce. It seemed rather excessive and I wondered if it might have been an error? I used have the amount. Curry sauce was a lot darker than recipe photo. Will definitely cook again and recommend!! 🌺
