  3. Add stock paste and water to TMB. Place coated beef into basket and insert into TM bowl.

    This was fabulous. I used two tablespoons of skinnymixers Mexican seasoning and would probably go to 3 next time. Both my children (5 and 7) loved it, which is unheard of!

    I used a regualar taco seasoning satchet and it didn't retain enough flavour after cooking in the water. I also had more meat though - probably 750g. I guess I would add more or extra at the end next time. Otherwise this worked well. I used cubed round steak which was quite lean.

    Yum! I doubled the meat, but used only one packet "Burrito seasoning" by McCormick. After sautéing the onion/garlic: Instead of cooking the beef cubes in the basket, I put them directly into the bowl with the water and seasoning, cooked 30 minutes/100C/Reverse Blade 2. It cooked beautifully! Keeper/Do-over Recipe. Thank you! I plan on putting this meat into quessadillas with cheese.
