News about Thermomix / New competition from H.O. Australia
« on: March 05, 2017, 06:57:21 am »
It's been a bit quiet with competitions of late but here we go again with Monika giving us 2 books and 2 recipe chips, Entertaining with Dani Lavent.  Thanks once again Monika and H.O. for these offerings.

As there are TM31 and TM5 owners, this time we'll be having separate competitions for these gifts.  A  chip is of no use if you have a TM31 so we will offer the book for those owners and the chip will be for the TM5 owners.

You will have to put your thinking caps on though as we are going to ask you to do something to earn your chance to win one of these items.  Details appear in the competition itself, the links are below.

If you need help posting a photo please pm one of the moderators to see if we can help you.

Any questions may be asked on this thread, not on the competition thread please.

Competition No. 1 for the book http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=17311.msg419357#msg419357

Competition No. 2 for the chip http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=17312.0

Breakfast / Sour Cream Pancakes
« on: March 01, 2016, 12:58:20 pm »
This is a Pioneer Woman recipe which works well in the Thermomix.

2 eggs
250g sour cream
90g g plain flour
1 tbspn sugar
1 tsp baking soda (bicarbonate of soda)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp salt
2-3 tbspns butter
Maple syrup to serve

Place eggs into TM bowl.  Whisk 5 sec/speed 5.
Add sour cream, flour, sugar, baking soda, vanilla & salt.  Turn dial to locked lid position  *: and knead  ::  for 10 seconds.  Check mixture, you want to have some texture, not a smooth batter. If there's any flour not mixed in, mix it in with a spatula.

Heat a heavy based frying pan on medium heat, add 1 tbspn butter for each batch, don't overcrowd the pan.

Pour desired amount into the pan, wait until bubbles appear, about a minute or so depending on the size of your pancake, then flip and cook the underside for 45-60 seconds.

I made half quantity of the recipe and served mine with maple syrup and cream.

Condiments and Sauces / Chookie's basic curry sauce

I recently bought bulk packs of quinoa and chia seeds from Costco and I must confess to liking chia better than quinoa unless it's in a soup.  I have never tried salads with them but I will do so.

This porridge makes 2 cups for 6 month old children and it freezes well too. I didn't blitz it as the recipe stated, I couldn't see the point for an adult.  I did add a touch of sugar as it wasn't sweet enough for me and it did need some milk added at the end of cooking as well because it was too thick.  Maybe it did need to be blitzed, I'll try that when I have another serve. 

Having said and done all that, I didn't really enjoy it.

Vegetarian / Roasted Tomato, Garlic, Chilli & Basil Sauce
« on: January 31, 2016, 09:43:22 am »
This recipe was in my latest edition of Weight Watchers magazine but I made it with minor changes including replacing the  Jalapenos with long red chillis.  It makes 2 cups of sauce and serves 4

1 kg tomatoes - I used a mixture of romas & black Russian
1/2 head garlic
3 tbspn balsamic vinegar
1 large red onion, cut into thick wedges
1 long red chilli, cut in half and deseeded
1 cup basil leaves

Preheat oven to 170 degrees fan forced.  Line a large oven tray with baking paper.

Cut the tomatoes in halves (or in the case of very large tomatoes, cut into 3 thick slices) and place onto the lined tray. Sprinkle the balsamic vinegar over them.

Wrap the garlic in alfoil and place that on the tray as well.

Place the onion and chilli pieces in and around the tomato pieces.

Spray with oil and season with S & P.   Bake for 1 hour, checking occasional to make sure the onion and chilli are not browning too much.  If they are, remove them from the tray and finish cooking the tomatoes for the full time. Allow everything to cool slightly. 

Squeeze the garlic from the skin, place in the TMX bowl along with the other ingredients, including the fresh basil leaves. Make sure the leaves are under the surface to ensure even chopping.

Select closed lid, then press the turbo button twice for about 1 second each time.  You don't want a puree, you just need everything to be chopped as per the photo. Check after the first press.

Serve over pasta, as a pizza base or anything that a passata type sauce is used.  It is rich and delicious and a little goes a long way.  I'll be freezing my leftovers in 1/2 cup portions.
