As it fit in the basket we decided to just steam it in there rather than the Varoma.  I followed the cooking instructions from Simone's Thermomix Essentials and it worked really well.  Thanks again for your help, it was so much easier than doing it on the stove and tasted much nicer than just heating it in the microwave.

Hi all,

We bought a 400 gram Christmas Pudding from a farmers market last week and were wondering how to go about steaming it using the Varoma rather than on the stovetop?

I've only had my Thermomix a few days and haven't used the Varoma yet so I am a bit unsure as to how to go about it.

Is anyone able to advise if it's possible and if so, what I need to do?

Many thanks 

Thanks for the welcome everyone!

As it happens my consultant told me that she may have it to me by Friday or Saturday as there was someone going out to the aiport yesterday to pick up an order and I may have just scraped in for an extra one.

I don't particularly need it by Christmas but I was expecting that I would have to wait till early to mid January so it will be a nice surprise if I can manage to get it by the weekend.  That way I can have a couple of extra weeks to play with my new toy!
