    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.

    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!

    This is our new 'go to' carbonara recipe! Hubby loved it - used fettucine and added a little more water and cooked for the amount of time on the packet. Definitely will become a regular

    Quick & easy

    I used 200g of pasta instead & added mushrooms like some had suggested, we had 2 adult-sized portions. Will definitely make again.

    This was quick and simple to make. The sauce reduced a bit too much for my liking, though it still tasted good. Better luck next time I hope!

    This was a hit with the family. I made a few small adjustments - omitted the egg (just because I forgot), added some sliced mushrooms and broccoli florets (next time I will add the broccoli in about 5 minutes after the rest of the ingredients) and I didn't add the salt (everyone just added it to taste). The other thing I did was pan fry the bacon for the first 10 minutes of cooking time and then added it in with 5 minutes to go. The pasta pieces got a bit broken up for my liking - I used penne - so I might pop the butterfly in next time to see if that helps.

    so easy and so yummy (I reduced the water to 400g and left out the egg and it was still delicious!)
