WHite Chicken Chilli - MOTM cookbook
« on: March 16, 2011, 10:36:18 am »
How disappointing - I know that I should have checked more thouroughly before quickly beginning this dish after arriving home late  :(  :(  :(.The only dish I have ever made that I was not able to find a positive - despite reducing the amount of stock from 800g (I believed was excessive for 500g chicken meat) - the end result was a tasteless chicken soup style dish. When compared to the majority of dishes I have tried from Meat on the Menu, from my experience this recipe should never have been published.  Hope all are having a better night than I!!!!!!

And here I was thinking the EDC is the only cookbook that doesnt seem to be tested. Are any recipes from the cookbooks tested?

This was my first try at using the thermomix!  I decided to make this recipe. I made a shopping list and off to the shops!  The outcome - I made soup!  Whaa.....  In future I will check here before trying a recipe.

So has Thermomix got a list of corrections? 

Told Hubby, that we are having soup tonight lol.

Hi Olga, welcome to the forum with your first posting and your first disaster.  How's your luck, picking something which is so obviously not right in quantities/instructions.  May I suggest you try some recipes from the forum and as you said, always check on here before making recipes from the books.  If you can't find a review, ask anyway as someone may have done it and not made a comment. Let me reassure you that you will have successes.

Welcome Olga. As Judy says the recipes on the forum are good to start with.
Where are you from?
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Faffa is down that way too.

Thanks for the warning. What we should all do is tweak it and work out what's wrong with the recipe. If you're new at the TMX, sometimes you don't look at a recipe and decide that the speed is too high or time is too long. I often reduce the speed when chopping and always cook recipes for less time and check then cook again if necessary.
A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

MJ in my opinion there was nothing right about this dish - I have put a cross through the whole page in MOTM

What a shame Johnro, we should let them know.
