Title: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: cookie1 on July 19, 2014, 11:27:58 am: We have a lovely, new, exciting challenge for you. This message will not self destruct after you read it, so don't worry.(for those who have ever seen Mission Impossible) ;D ;D

For the next couple of weeks we would love you to select a recipe from the forum, or a book if you wish, that has not been reviewed.
Goldfish has been bumping lots of older recipes for us so that may help. (Thank you GF).

If you have trouble posting photos you may like to send them to a moderator who will post them for you. We'd love to see photos of your creations. You don't need to be a Masterchef at "plating up. ". I'm certainly not. I tend to chuck it onto the plate. ;)

We can't wait to see what you wonderful folks come up with. Go check the dungeons for recipes NOW. But most of all have fun. :D :D ;D ;D

Post by: jeninwa on July 20, 2014, 01:23:52 am: I've got a recipe to post that I am half way through typing up, I meant to post it yesterday but ran out of time. It's from an old WW cookbook, will post later today.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: cookie1 on July 20, 2014, 07:01:38 am: Goody, I will look forward to it. I love WW recipes.

Post by: Jamberie on July 20, 2014, 11:12:50 am: Or you could go to the individual sections (e.g. Main Dishes) then at the top of the rows click on "replies" so they are sorted from least to most. Just because a post has 10 replies, doesn't mean it has been reviewed though, many times members make comments such as "I will try that" etc, but not necessarily reviews :)
I hope that makes sense!

Post by: Cornish Cream on July 20, 2014, 11:41:37 am: I dug up this little gem of a recipe and had all the basic ingredients on hand so made them.Couldn't coat them in chocolate though,none in the cupboard,anywhere :-))

Post by: cookie1 on July 20, 2014, 12:23:59 pm: They look nice. I spent a bit of time looking through a couple of sections of the forum today and I've selected about 12 recipes that I'd like to try. That was from 2 sections and not all the pages in either section.
As Jamberie said lots of recipes haven't actually been reviewed. Now I need to decide what to make and find the time. I have a fair bit of car club stuff to do this week, but I will get at least one done. I don't like to be deprived of my cooking time. :)

Post by: judydawn on July 21, 2014, 03:52:12 am: I made one of Thermomixer's early recipes for lunch - the Cream of Cucumber soup with prawns (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=169.0). It's also in FSA on page 50.

Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: achookwoman on July 21, 2014, 05:13:50 am: What constitutes a review? Is a review when someone uses the basic recipe but substitutes some of the ingredients? Or is a review only relevant if made to the original recipe. ?
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: BeezeeBee on July 21, 2014, 05:23:26 am: Such a cool challenge, Cookie 👍👍

Will try to find something too 😄
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: judydawn on July 21, 2014, 06:11:53 am: If you make an existing recipe, stray from the method or ingredients to improve it or to improvise using what you have on hand Chookie, that's a review. You will find with some of our early postings that some tweaking is probably necessary as we have learned so much over the years and many of these recipes can be improved.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: achookwoman on July 21, 2014, 06:58:21 am: Thanks Judy. Think I have identified about 5 that I will try. Not for a few days though.

Post by: judydawn on July 21, 2014, 09:41:24 am: Thought I'd try Paul's Sweet Lamb Pie (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1021.msg364295#msg364295) as my next challenge recipe.

A very early recipe so I did do my own thing with it ;) It was delicious.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: troupie on July 21, 2014, 11:28:47 am: What a great challenge to look for new recipes that haven't been reviewed. I thought I had copied out every recipe there was and put them in my folders until this challenge and now I find there are lots more to try. I have just reviewed Chelseas Chocolate Chip cookies. Yum.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: cookie1 on July 21, 2014, 12:22:27 pm: I am laughing as Judy has selected a recipe I had put on my list. I will still try to get these made an review too. I have a busy week and I didn't even get near my thermomix today. Very sad. Even DH made dinner today.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: judydawn on July 21, 2014, 01:47:45 pm: Sorry Cookie, both were worth doing so it would be nice if someone else tried them as well.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: cookie1 on July 21, 2014, 02:35:42 pm: It is funny. I went back to the beginning of main meals and started from there. I can easily make one or more of my other selections. ;D ;D ;D :D

Jolly auto correct. :D :D

Post by: cookie1 on July 22, 2014, 10:23:33 am: Today I made JulieO's Irish Brown Yeast Bread. I made it exactly as JulieO said. It only has one rise and is very easy to make. It uses plain flour which was surprising. It surprised me as the sides and ends were very shiny when I took it out of the tin. Unusually so. I used a tin slightly larger than JulieO suggested. The dough is very wet but that caused no problems.
I have just been bad and snuck a slice. The crumb seems different but this could be due to the plain flour or the very moist dough, I don't know. The flavour is lovely and I will definitely be making this many more times. The recipe has a tiny bit of treacle in it, next time I might try molasses, but I think it is only to darken the loaf.
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/22/pugenequ.jpg). The very shiny sides of the loaf.

Post by: gertbysea on July 23, 2014, 04:50:16 am: Well interesting. I felt sorry for this poor recipe because no one reviews it.

http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14703.0

Aggies Heatwave Meatballs.

Don't know,how Maggie came to name this dish . Must have been a hot day as there is no heat in these here meat balls.

I thought the recipe was odd with the cloves but gave it a go.

Turned out pretty bland but I think kids would love it.

The sauce was very nice and it is a useful little sauce indeed

Tomorrow's recipe will be more to my palate.

Post by: mab19 on July 23, 2014, 05:12:46 am: I made Farfallina's Pumpkin & Zucchini Soup (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14695.0) yesterday. It's a slightyly thinner soup than the usual pumpkin soup and the taste is different, probably due to the zucchini. Next time I might put a little nutmeg in it as well. We liked it and I will make it again.

I'm still trying to learn how to insert a hyperlink. Hope it works :)
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do

Post by: judydawn on July 23, 2014, 09:27:29 am: I had no intention of cooking anything for a few days as I have plenty of leftovers from previous meals but I popped into Mum's and found she had bought herself a 200g carton of sliced mushrooms. She didn't know why, said they just looked nice so I offered to cook something with them for her.

I found this recipe (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=13488.0) of Cookie's and used the sauce and pasta component - I hope Mum likes it. Tasted good to me.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: EmeraldSue on July 23, 2014, 12:14:21 pm: That looks nice Judy.
I made one of your recipes for dinner tonight - thick carrot and tomato soup http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=7612.0 (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=7612.0)
And served it with quick n easy bread http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=10192.0 (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=10192.0). The bread had a bottle of beer instead of yeast and didn't need proving.
It was a quick and tasty meal perfect for a cold winters evening.

Post by: cookie1 on July 23, 2014, 12:34:52 pm: The bread looks lovely and fluffy ES. The soup looks tasty too.

Even though it has lots of reviews I made Swiss Beef tonight. It is really tasty and maybe needs a bump up for those that haven't tried it. It is one of Chelsea's recipes. http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1713.0
I always put carrot and peas or spinach in it too.
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: gertbysea on July 23, 2014, 12:46:42 pm: Yes Es that meal is a winner.

Cookie I am not even going to look at Swiss Beef. My mother used to make it ALL the time and served it with Vomit worthy Lima Beans.

I though I had erased that memory until NOW ;D

Post by: gertbysea on July 24, 2014, 03:18:17 am: Had to make the Irish Yeast Bread.

I nearly dropped it as I was putting it in the oven and that I think is why if fell in the middle. I Did get the shine on it but of course not on the bottom as I had to put baking paper in my bread tin bottom as this tin has small holes in it and it is a very wet dough.

There are some gems out there waiting for someone to give them a chance ;D I'll move your photo to What's for dinner.

Post by: Halex on July 24, 2014, 03:56:48 am: Yes judy I did misunderstand it. I thught it read old recipes an recipes from books, so thiught you needed reviews on food cooked in TM.

I love your presentation board Gert.DH bought some Olive Wood recently I think I might ask him to make a board like yours ;D
Title: Re: A New Challenge........for those who are brave enough to step in.......please do
Post by: gertbysea on July 24, 2014, 11:08:54 am: CC I have a few wooden crapola boards and a couple of wonderful chopping board made by DH's years ago one of Mahogany which I treasure.it is very heavy and very large. I love it to bits a and fear one day I may not be able to lift it. Every once in a while he sand and oils it but alas he is almost getting beyond this.

The cheapos are just that but handy. If DH was up to making me some more I would want a couple of random shapes with handles. Maybe Mango wood.

When we had a boat I had solid Teak plates which I loved . I never had any plastic on my boat including glasses as at the time it was an old timber cruise built in 1945 And deserved the best. It is still going strong on the Gipsland Lakes. I miss it but not the maintenance.

Post by: meganjane on July 25, 2014, 02:23:14 pm: Wow, Katie! A day at home from work and you spend it cooking. Sounds like what I'd do, too..... :D

I've been too busy to cook much this week and am away for the weekend, sans Thermie, unfortunately. So, not much cooking from the forum.

Yesterday I made my Dinner Rolls, et al, (must put it on here) and rolled into scrolls with grated parmesan and herbs. Delish!

I still have a couple of old recipes from here that I want to try, perhaps next week. Meanwhile, enjoying everyone else's contributions.

We had a recipe of Farfallina's tonight. It is Pasta Sauce with Sun Dried Tomatoes. . It is really tasty. I couldn't find quite enough parsley in the garden but felt what I had was adequate. This will become a favourite in this house.
http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=4924.0
It is a pasta sauce with lots of flavour.

I will be making the stuffed zucchini next summer when I have large ones growing.
We got home today from a very foggy game of lacrosse and didn't have enough time to bake some bread, so I made Kimmy's scone pinwheels for lunch http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=11542.0;topicseen (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=11542.0;topicseen)
The kids (me too) loved them and I even have some in the freezer now for lunchboxes.
I had some lemon juice in the fridge so I made Cookies lemon layer squares whilst the oven was still hot http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=7381.0 (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=7381.0)
They are very similar to a slice that I've been making for years that has always been a favourite. Yum.

Chookie's walnut sauce (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=3091.0) - mixed it with pasta, added some parmesan and parsley.

The Spanish recipe Julia Balbilla translated into English for us, Crema Inglesa (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=8303.0) but it refused to set.

I also have this Apple Leather (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=13831.0) in the oven, found it early afternoon which means I'll be sitting up until almost 1 am waiting for it to dehydrate in the oven tonight :-))

Post by: gertbysea on July 29, 2014, 01:19:37 am: Actually I am not looking forward to visiting Sydney at all. It will be my first time back in my old neighbourhood in 12 years. I feel like a country bumpkin. It will probably take me longer to get to Avalon on public transport than to fly from Cairns to Sydney. I am taking some treacle and yeast to make the Irish Brown Yeast Bread. Hope she has some wholemeal flour. What will I do without my TMX?

Post by: goldfish on July 29, 2014, 02:17:50 am: According to one forecast . .Tuesday 10C - 21C; Wednesday 11C - 22C; Thursday 12C - 23C; Friday 6C - 15C; Saturday 7C - 14C

It was supposed to be bright and sunny today . . but not. It might brighten up a little later. This is going to be one of those weeks where you think those lovely warm days are going to last . . . only to be whipped off your feet with an Arctic blast of freezing winds. . . . :(

I have some jasmine in the garden that thought it might be spring and has started to blossom. It'll have a rude awakening come the weekend . :o >:(

I make about 3 loaves of bread a week. I love yeast cookery.
The Hokkaido milk bread is oh so very nice. Even DH commented that it wasn't bad! Next time I make it I will put milk instead of cream though. I just happened to have some cream this time.
(http://img.tapatalk.com/d/14/07/29/sehadygu.jpg)
Sorry it looks a bit green. It was taken this morning in a rush before I went out. It is very yellow though. A lovely bread and I will make it again.

I lightly fried my sausages on the stove rather than steam them and left out the chick peas as DH doesn't like them. Then continued with the recipe and added the sausages at the end. A very nice meal suitable for this cold weather.

I was given two large pumpkins at the weekend so thought I would give Uni's recipe for Tony's Pumpkin Jam (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14528.0) a try.

I made it exactly as the recipe said. The texture is a little grainier than fruit jam but it's lovely and thick and doesn't taste at all like pumpkin. I used ordinary Queensland Blue pumpkin. This would be good in jam tarts etc

I made farfallina's walnut bread last night http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=4091.0;prev_next=prev (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=4091.0;prev_next=prev)

I've been finding that bread has been taking a long time to prove at the moment as it's been so cold. I mixed up the dough and left it to prove while I visited my parents. That took longer than I expected, and I was gone for about 2 hours. When I got back, the dough was pushing the mc out of the lid so I divided it in three, plaited it and left it to rise again. I then popped down to the neighbours for a drink and ended up staying for dinner....I think it was at least 2 hours before I got it in the oven. Despite my neglect, it turned out really well.

Tonight I made Judy's creamy leeks http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14005.0 (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=14005.0) to accompany pan fried salmon and veggies. It was really, really nice and there is none left. Thanks Judy!

Post by: Cuilidh on August 10, 2014, 03:59:50 am: Wish I could upload photos to share, but no matter how I try I just can't get it to work.

Anyway, today I made Thermomixer's Spinach and Chickpeas, Seville Style (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=87.0). I have posted my changes on the thread. It was very tasty, but I am not sure what kind of meal to serve it with. I think you could easily add chilli and it could become an Indian dish, but is very nice by itself (by the way, mine didn't look anything like the one illustrated on Thermomixer's thread!)

I also made riv_mum's Green beans with macadamias and garlic (http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=580.0). I made it much as per the recipe, it needed quite a bit of pepper and, as macadamias are so oily, I would suggest a bit less butter. I also think it would be best to simply use chopped macadamias instead of doing them in the TMX. One again, needs a good tsp of salt, but will make a very tasty side dish on a dinner table.
