Tip
- This looks like a lot of ingredients, but it is an easy recipe of steamed vegetables, boiled pasta and a lovely creamy sauce finished off with lovely hot smoked salmon pieces.
- This recipe can easily be upscaled to feed more people, just increase the amount of vegetables and pasta and you can double the sauce ingredients too.
- Alternatives to Salmon: barbequed or cooked chicken, barbequed sausages, roast vegetables eg pumpkin, sweet potato, fennel.
Note: This recipe was created in honour of a good friend, "Wazza", who enjoyed all things Thermomix, good food and inspirational dinner conversations.

Recipe is created for
TM 6
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.
