Hi there
If anybody is pottering around here at the moment, I would love some suggestions for my dinner!  I have some cooked chicken meat that I want to turn into a creamy coconut chicken dish served with rice.
I would love to try it in the TMX but I have no idea where to start without a recipe!

These are the ingredients I want to use -

cooked chicken
some chicken stock or vegie stock concentrate
onion
garlic
coriander
maybe curry ???
cream
coconut cream
butter
flour
Anything else tasty ?????  I might have it.....

I don't have any experience with TMX yet and I was wondering if anybody could suggest a quick guide to the order I need to do it in and what speed, time, temp etc.....

I know, very short notice!!  The freezer and pantry is pretty bare and this is about all I have to cook up.  I could just do it in the pan like I used to but if anybody has a minute, I would love to give the TMX another whirl. 
thanks so much!

Hi tarosuma.  The only thing I can come up with off the top of my head is Nico's Thai Chilli Chicken - adapted to use what you have and adding the diced cooked chicken at the end once the sauce is made

http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=784.0

or the only recipe I have tried with cooked chicken is the Hawaiin chicken here, once again just using what you have.

I just had a quick look on this forum, and you could also try this Curry Chicken, Fricasse Chicken, Chicken and Bacon Macaroni Cheese, as a couple of suggestions   :)

 ;D ;D ;D I thought I had posted a recipe for a chicken curry using cooked meat CP63 but when I went through my print-out file, it wasn't there.  Must have forgotten to do it so thanks for highlighting it - it is now in my recipe folder.

Thankyou Judy and CreamPuff.  I have printed out all of those recipes you suggested so I guess I will just take bits and pieces from each of them and see what I end up with.  I am clueless about mostly everything to do with TMX at the moment, very new to it - will see what happens!

there's a lovely recipe in the EDC that would work perfectly - quick curry chicken or something?

How did things go and what did you end up making?

Well I have to say that my first effort of making things up as I went along went very well!  The only problem is that I don't remember what I did!  Mind you, that was about 20 Thermomix experiments ago so it is no wonder I have foggy thermomix brain!  I am in TMX heaven at the moment,  it has only been 1 week and I am wondering how I could possibly be so in love with a kitchen appliance!  My husband is wondering too though with all this yummy food coming out of the kitchen, I am sure I can see the cold attitude towards Theo the Thermomix starting to thaw.  He will have to swallow his pride and admit I was right....... soon...... maybe.....

When will our DH's learn that us women are always right  ;) ;) ;)  Glad to hear you are going so well tarosuma.  Let me tell you, the love affair goes on and on and on...... just ask anyone on here who has had their machine for a couple of years.

So true JD.  I have only had my machine for a little over 12 months, but am still madly in love.  ;D

  Fellow Thermomix owners understand, others just think we're crazy. With some of my friends I have to make a conscious effort not to mention the machine. They all enjoy the things that come from the machine though.

It does make you wonder...............grown people loving a machine and despairing of ever having to do without it.

I am really glad to hear about all your continuing sentiments for your TMXs.  I am certainly in that early stage of complete obsession with Theo and was hoping it isn't just a holiday fling!   ;)
Cookie, I can already understand the bit about not mentioning it to friends too often - I can envisage lots of eye rolling from friends and family if I keep talking about it constantly!  So nice to be able to come here and chat!
