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!

    OMG this is yum. I didn't have liquid veggie stock so used Vegeta Gourmet Stock and water. So easy and quick.

    Love this soup. Needed to use up the asparagus but children are not mad on it let alone husband. The addition of the sweet potato turned it into a lovely robust soup, which was still asparagus, but subtle. Amazing! Thank you for sharing.

    Simple and easy to make. Nice, thick texture (don't like soups too runny). Good flavour. Will definitely make again.
