Questions? Technical Issues? The Survival Guide / Re: Question - can you make two omlettes at once in the varoma?
« on: May 12, 2013, 10:15:34 am »
Yes, that method in the link judydawn posted is how I made mine, they came out beautifully. When I did them for 1 I used two eggs, 30g cheddar cheese, a bit of coriander and salt and pepper. I used the bottom part of varoma for this as it seems smaller. When I made a bigger one for hubby and me I used 6 eggs, about 60g cheese, some coriander and salt and pepper, and used the top layer of varoma. I steamed peas, corn and snow peas in the bottom at the same time and it made a nice light meal :-)

Good idea about putting different toppings on different sides cookie1 - think I I'll try that next time as hubby would love some ham on his, and I wouldn't mind some mushroom on mine :-)

Thanks Amy :-) I thought that might be the case - I'm trying out the thicker one tonight for dinner with the hubby, enjoyed my breakfast omlette so much!!

Cookbook Contents / Taste of vegetarian cookbook - is my copy printed incorrectly?
« on: May 11, 2013, 04:09:06 am »
Hi everyone,

I've just got my thermie and a couple of cookbooks two days ago. In my taste of vegetarian cookbook I noticed that in the index at the back it seems to be a bit strange, and I'm not sure if my copy has a printing error?

For example, the last page of the index is mains (continued) - on this page several of the recipes are listed twice, such as the zucchini moussaka and strudel. In other parts of the index, potato curry is listed under the milk catergory, face mask under the dips starters and sides catergory...If anyone else has a copy of the book, would you be able to let me know if yours is the same?

It's not a big deal, but I just thought it was a bit weird and was wondering if this is just how all the books came out, or if I got a misprinted copy :-)

Hi everyone,

Just wondering if anyone has tried making two omlettes at once using both the top and bottom tray in the varoma? I'm not sure if this would work or not?

Made an awesome omlette this morning for breakfast but was thinking it would be great if I could make one for hubby and one for me at the same time :-)

Introduce Yourself / Re: 2 days until my delivery!

Thanks everyone for the welcome! It has arrived :-) first stop: raspberry and lime sorbet (already had dinner tonight!)

We're having the mums over for lunch on Sunday (mother's day), so have a few plans for what I'm going to make.

Yes, my Aunty was super kind to lend me hers - but she was also overseas at the time, so at least wasn't missing out on cooking in it while I had it. Very trusting though!!!

Introduce Yourself / 2 days until my delivery!
« on: May 07, 2013, 02:07:27 pm »
Hi everyone,

Just wanted to introduce myself - I ordered my thermie last week and my delivery is in two days!

I'd been considering the machine for a while but wasn't too sure, but then a family member very generously lent me hers for a couple of weeks. That was enough to convince me that it would fit in with the way I like to cook :-)

I'm hoping to use it mainly for quick weeknight dinners, breakfast smoothies, and the occasional sweet treat  ;D I've ordered the Indian and vegetarian cookbook, so hopefully these will get me off to a good start. I've also ordered a second bowl set.

Looking forward to trying out lots of the recipes on this forum!
