thanks JD love this recipe
always a hit...have made this recipe several times in the past couple of months and everyone always loves it..even the french and they arent big fans of spice!

also will put it in a notebook im preparing for my parents who will soon have their own thermie and so im putting together a few recipes ive tried and have found so easy for them!

still so many great recipes to discover..somehow i think it will be a while before i get around to translating my own haha !

thanks JD..I have just sent an email to my consultant over here to ask if she has ever heard of it!  I have never seen it mentioned other than in oz so think it may be difficult to get hold of one.

I need to ask...what is the Thermoserver??  Ive seen it mentioned a few times.  I dont think they have that over here.  We just have the bowl, basket insert and the varoma and tray with lid???

i apologise in advance if its not the right place to ask questions!

ok im adding to the already thousands of replys but thank you ILB..made this cake this afternoon and yummo..so incredibly quick and actually tastes good and its light..very impressed..never thought that quick and good went together!!

as they say in france ..chapeau. (bascially hat off to you, bravo etc etc)

also i noticed your decorating for bday cakes etc..good to see others doing it..most of my friends buy bought decorated cakes..its a tradition in our family to make our own..the kids choose the cake they want and mummy makes it..usually out of hte WW birthday cookbook.always gets lots of wows over here..kids bday parties are usually a pretty basic packet cake, some kind of drink, a bag of lollies to take home and an hour and a half at the bday kids house and thats it..this year im doing a lunch and afternoon with homemade sausage rolls, fairy bread etc etc, lots of games..how i remmeber when i was a kid..!

thanks again guys...feeling very welcomed!  haha thermomixer..and you should be proud that your french gets you by ..there are so many tourists that dont even bother and its such a shame..so much to discover in France!  I have never noticed that garbage truck company ...although havent lived in paris for sometime now..I live with my husband (french) little boy who is almost 5 and baby girl 21mths in the Loire Valley and we pop up to paris now and then which is nice but where we live is pretty nice too!

For the moment i am trying out so many recipes on the forum and today it was the ILBs chocolate cake...yummo..i was quite impressed that you could literally throw it all in the bol, mix, cook and voila a yummy and light chocolate cake..made one for hte family and another for my demo with friends tomorrow night..had to cook something extra to what we will cook that evening..

Definatley look forward to converting and sharing recipes..french and other..no problem as i translate alot of recipes but more from english to french for locals who love whatever i made and ask for it but cant understand it in english....one downfall of french cusine is that its based more on tradition and not so much on variety so alot of what i prepare they enjoy as its different to them..probably not so much to an aussie! Saying that french food, well prepared is divine and very fattening!! haha

and thought the name was appropriate for a french aussie
merci et bon appetit egalement

thanks everyone for your warm welcome..

thanks cornish cream & cream puff..i will contact the uk head office as well..i love many cookbooks as well and i had my eye on the indian cookbok also...thanks as i didnt know alot of hte english ones were the same or similar ones from oz.. the aussie head office did contact me today as well so i should be able to get a copy of whatever books..postage would definatley be cheaper form the uk though so i willhave to check out the sites and prices and compare...im still getting my head around it..have done alot of quick and easy meals, dips, cocktails (got to love those) some cakes.and i have noticed people are very helpful..

all in all loving the thermie and the site isnt too bad either!  :P

Im having a demo this thursday night at home as over here they give you a free cooking book for every three guests..got to be in that as in France they are quite expensive !

look forward to conversing more with you all

Introduce Yourself / Aussie in France
« on: June 13, 2010, 02:07:55 pm »
Hi all

I love that I found this forum..have had my thermomix for a month now and havent stopped using it...still trying to figure alot out though..cant wait until im able to convert other recipes...not quite there yet!  The forum in france is good too but no where near as many recipes

I am an aussie and also french, french hubby and two adorable kids..boy and a girl..been living here for 10 years now and love to cook..

Looking forward to more recipes and eventually posting my own..have to give me some time though..in typical aussie form the forum seems to be open and friendly..realise not only aussies but seems to be the majority so im calling it the aussie forum !!

I have enjoyed being able to compare similar recipes..english versus french...

For the more experienced of you on the forum, how long did it take you to be able to convert other non thermie recipes?? Is there a set rule for the conversion??

Look forward to geting to know you all a little better and mastering my thermomix.

 :)
