Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    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!

    these were awesome, brought back some good memories from my childhood. They were simple to make and didn't take to long in the pan. The only suggestion i wouldo make would be to add a small amount of cheese to the mixture, to make them cheesy tmrc_emoticons.)

    Great, yummy & easy recipe.

    A quick & super easy recipe. I didn't add garlic as thought the onion was enough & it was. I did add parmesan, which was a good addition, although i also think they needed a little more salt. Could do so much with them by adding few things if you wanting to suit you tastes. They also cook quickly & really nice to add for BBQ's or as a side dish to meats etc. Will be making this often & will be doubling the recipe as they went fast. Thanks for posting.
