Has anyone made scrambled eggs in the TMX (intentionally that is!! ::) If so would you mind sharing, speed time etc.
Thanks for any advice.
Recently purchased a Thermomix and loving it. Great forum and look forward to coming back regularly to pick up tips & recipes.

Hi sirrahk
I have made creamed eggs - HERE (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=62.msg80#msg80)
You don't need the truffle. It would pay to try with less butter and substitute some cream or milk.
One problem with eggs in this form or dishes like zablagione as in this recipe (http://thermomix-er.blogspot.com/2008/07/baileys-zabaglione-in-thermomix.html) is that the eggs do tend to catch on the base - but not a big problem.
Use the butterfly and slow speed and either 70 or 80ºC.
Just experiment.

My husband made scrambled eggs this morning. He and my daughter both said they were excellent (I didn't have any). This is what he did:
4 eggs
50g milk
30g butter
salt & pepper
Put all ingredients in mixing bowl. Put butterfly whisk in. 10 minutes at speed 2, 100 degrees.
Hope this helps

Hi, I just saw this posting by Tenina on another thread, regarding problems with cleaning the mixer bowl after cooking eggs. It was really helpful advice, hence I've coped and pasted it here:
"Eggs will always stick unless the pan is hot when they hit it (no matter what the pan is made of) so my recommendation is to heat the TM bowl until it has reached temp, and then put your egg(s) in. However...if the eggs are in with other ingredients, it should not matter.
Usually sticking occurs if there has been a recipe malfunction...you have added time to the recipe for example, or used a higher temp than recommended, or the speed was incorrect...however if you do have a catch, a non-stick scourer is fine to use as already explained in this forum."
My husband said that the clean up after his scrambled egg recipe was difficult in thermomix terms, but not in absolute terms :) He immediately rinsed it, then did the self-clean with washing up liquid, then finished off the job by dismantling the machine and giving it a quick swish with a smooth wire cleaning pad. I'll suggest that he tries the above method next time, and see if that brings it back to being easy to clean.
