Thermomix Model

    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!

    Nice easy recepie that has good flavor. Despite me adding extra chilli's this wasn't very hot to my surprise. I don't think this is a traditional Madras but it's nice anyway. I added some frozen peas and used a mix of chicken breast and some chicken pieces with bones.

    Delish!!                                                      

     

    Easy recipe to follow and beautiful flavours. Not as hot as I was expecting so I might add more chillis next time, but the flavour has such good depth.

     

    only feeding 2 adults here so cut down to 500gm chicken, but kept the amounts the same for all other ingredients, and added some frozen peas. YUM YUM YUM.
