Chit Chat / Slow-cooker Meets Thermomix - book review?
« on: October 06, 2011, 11:59:17 am »
Hi, I come across to this book on eBay.  Does anyone has it?  And what's your review about this book?
Thanks.

It serve a lot, take time to cook and very soupy.  My only tweak is only use one green chilly.
Personally I will prefer thicker consistency, maybe like Chookie's dahl recipe.

I use watermelon and instead of lemon using juice of one orange.  Not need much water as watermelon has lots of liquid.  Yummy...  Would be regular, made two glasses and I finished them by myself  ;)

I'm thinking of doing detox.  I don't have juicer, can I use TMX to do all the vege or fruit juice?
Thanks.

Refreshing salad to go with chick pea curry.  I made double batch, my tweak is using red onion and adding coriander leaves.  None left, so a good sign  :D

We decided to have rice and curry for church lunch.  I made this curry and ketchumber.  My tweak is using coriander powder instead of dried green mango powder. And sprinkle coriander leave on top. My Srilankan friend gave a thumb up.  For sure will make this again.

It's tofu version of frittata, DS and DD loves this with tomato sauce.  Yum...

Put onion, garlic and carrot in the  *:, chop at speed 7 for 10 second.

On photo you can see there is crumble on top, as when transferring to plate, some of the crust come off.  Decided to crumb it on the top.

Not have enough roll oats, so 3:1 of roll oats and steel cut oats.  Instead of sunflower seeds, used 30g pepita.  Don't have dried rosemary, so just omit.  It's quite sticky when forming patties.  Turn out OK and serve it with tomato chutney.

I prefer Walnut Patties though.

Bread / Bread Colapse on Second Raise
« on: April 28, 2011, 01:42:31 pm »
Have done Isi's Portugese rolls as a loaf so many times with no fail.  But this time for second raise, as it's a bit cold I decided to put it in the oven at 50 degree, 20 min.  And it's colapse, twice as wide and looks more like flat bread.  Not quite sure that second raise in the oven causing all this   ???

29
I made with 100g dried apricot, 100g dates and 100g walnut.  I blend them lonbger then recipes, abour 35 seconds. 
Quick, yummy and great alternative for my sweet tooth.  They are in the freezer now, would be my snack to bring to work.

Give a thumb up for this one.

I used ricotta from the container and drainned it for a few hours.  i used up all my walnut (110g instead of 100g as per recipe), turn out really nice.  It's not sticky and easy to shape.  Next time will try to bake in the oven and reduce (or omit) cayenne pepper to make it more children friendly.
