Recipe is created forTM 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!

Melinda Hutchison: Melinda, I’ve found that to be an issue with Risotto recipes. Depending on brand or style, it may require a bit of extra liquid or time. I’ve generally now started adding an extra two minutes on the risotto cooking cycle to make sure it gets cooked enough.

This Risotto had a nice flavour, I had to add more liquid and cook for an extra 4 minutes though... Maybe it was something to do with my brand of aborio?

dwtl1710:Oh I'm so sorry, looks like I had accidentally deleted the arborio rice ingredient from the list. I just added it. It should be 230 g of rice. I'm sorry I did not see this sooner. The system did not tell me there was a question/message. Hope you enjoy!
