Recipe's preparation

    Prepare
  1. Soak prunes in wine while preparing the mash and pork.

  2. Mashed potatoes and pork
  3. Insert butterfly whisk. Place potatoes, milk and salt in TM bowl, and put TM lid on. Flatten pork slices with your hand and arrange in Varoma tray. Assemble Varoma and place on top of TM lid. Cook for 30 mins / 95 degrees / speed 1. Without removing Varoma lid, put entire Varoma on top of a Thermoserver to keep warm while preparing mash. 

  4. Add butter and nutmeg to TM bowl. Mash potatoes for 30 secs / speed 3.

  5. Place mashed potatoes in Thermoserver under Varoma to keep warm while preparing the sauce. Rinse out TM bowl.

  6. Sauce
  7. Drain the wine from the prunes into the TM bowl, and set prunes aside. Heat wine for 5 mins / 100 degrees / speed 1

  8. Add redcurrant jelly and cream to TM bowl, and mix for 1 min / speed 2.

  9. Return meat and prunes to TM bowl. Heat for 5 mins / 100 degrees / speed 2 on reverse, MC off.

  10. Place mash on plate and arrange pork slices on top, before pouring sauce over. Garnish with snow pea sprouts or watercress.

Tip

The sauce will be quite runny. If you prefer a thicker sauce, remove the pork to the Thermoserver, add 2 tsp cornflour to TM bowl and cook for 5 mins / Varoma / speed 1, MC off to reduce slightly.

A rich and delicious dish, perfect for a special meal.

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!
