Have also done the children's tea of rice, carrots and brocolli and salmon completely in there.  I KNOW I could just as easily have done that on the stove top but, I'm familiarising myself 

I then made custard to go with the (tinned - go on shoot me!) sponge pudding.  They love sponge pudding but I rarely do it with real custard as real custard scares me ...  Not any more 

Later on I shall be doing curry for dh and I.  Its really quite exciting (what a complete saddo!)

I've just asked DH what he wants me to cook in Thelma when she arrives tomorrow (I saw that someone else called theirs Dobby, I think I like that name better!)

He's requested curry - fair enough I've ordered the Indian cookbook with it - is that going to be too ambitious for the first time of using the machine.  I'm a reasonably good cook so my learning curve is just the machine and not cooking curry!!

Hi all, as the subject says, I'm Nicola and I live in the UK (South Coast)
I've been looking at the Thermy for a while now (I have almost every other kitchen gadget ....) and at the weekend bit the bullet and ordered one.  I'm so excited it comes tomorrow.

I have three boys (8,5 and 2), the older ones are on the autistic spectrum so I like to give them an additive free diet as possible.  The oldest is medically underweight so also needs a very high calorie diet, however their behaviour is very challenging and finding the time to make meals from scratch is getting harder and harder.  Never mind finding the time for biscuits and cakes.  (although lets face it, its the clearing up that's really the problem!) <G>

Anyway looking forward to getting Thelma tomorrow (can I call her that?) and hoping that you people can help me out on my learning curve.

Good to meet you all

Nik
