Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / Re: Recipe Review: Chicken and Macadamias with Coconut Lime Satay Sauce. Quirky Jo

We liked this one, I thought there was too much liquid and tipped about half out.  Great flavour.  I'm still trying to figure out how large to chop veggies so they don't overcook in the varoma.  I'm a fan of recipes with minimal waste so this one ticks the boxes for me.  My 5 year old co-reviewer decided she didn't like it on sight but ate a surprising amount- actions speak louder than words!

I love these biscuits!!  Was very wary of the smell of the dough (cooking with molasses is new for me) but I cooked them up and dipped them in dark chocolate=ah-mazing.  Loved the spice (black pepper!) and found them to be perfect goldilocks texture- not too crunchy, not too chewy!   The 5 year old complained bitterly that I ate them all (oops) so I will be cooking another batch this weekend.

I adore this dish, what a taste sensation! 

My 5yo daughter didn't like anything but the rice but she's going to have to learn to love it because this is definitely going to be cooked regularly.

I had trouble with the eggs too, I'd run out of baking paper so had a go with a baking sheet instead - doesn't work ;)

Introduce Yourself / Hello!

Hi there,

I've been lurking for a little while but thought I'd better join and make myself official  :)

I've had my thermomix for about 6 months and loving it, I'm not finding it's saving me much time at the moment because ALL my spare time is spent in the kitchen.  I'm loving the variety and healthiness of the food we're making and I'm trying to get back to basics as much as possible (having a go at butter later today!)

This seems like a really supportive forum so I'm looking forward to meeting you all and learning your tips and tricks!

Cheers, Hayley
