Tried this recipe (Thank you Judy) and it was great, the ginger was just a tad low for Pam and I

We suspect the drink we had in Bali may have been made with some Carrots.

To give it a bit more zip I mixed 1/2 glass Judy's mix and 1/2 glass Schweppes Diet Dry Ginger.

Gave it just the zip I was looking for.

Thanks again Judy.

I had the family in for dinner so I made up a batch of Pina Colada's in my TM31:

500g Ice
150g Sugar
500ml Pineapple Juice
180ml Coconut Milk (or Cream)
270ml White Rum Bacardi
180ml Malibu or Wipeout
Dessicated coconut to to decorate glasses.

Place Ice and Sugar in TMX, blitz 5-10 for 2 minutes.
Add Pineapple Juice, Coconut Milk, White Rum, and Malibu and mix 5 seconds speed 3
Wet rims of glasses with water, put upside down on a saucer with coconut on to decorate.

Made enough for 5 of us to have 2 glasses each and they were looking for more. Next time I will cut the sugar back to 100g as 2 (incl. me) thought it was a bit too sweet.

No we were never told what was breaking, just that we were breaking it. Wife had trouble ever since we bought it, she couldn't get the lid to lock. It was better but she still has trouble so just doesn't use it. Potatoes now always boiled in a saucepan and mashed with a masher and rice is cooked on the cooktop in a saucepan. Only thing I use it for is boiling eggs. It is a most expensive egg boiler.
Then there is the psychological aspect, Robyn Wilkinson really gave me a hard time. In my 70 years only 3 people who I regret having any contact with and she is one of them.

Unable to say it is 100%. It has been to Windsor Gardens twice, technician claims we are breaking it. So sick of working around the error message that it barely gets used any more. We are so sorry we gave all the appliances it should have replaced away. Would never buy another TM.

Tried a Ginger Ninja at Sisterfields in Seminyak. It was so good went back for seconds but the Ginger buzz just was not there the second time around
Cannot wait until we get home so I can try this recipe in our TM31 - IF IT STILL WORKS.
The Ginger Ninja had some carrot but your recipe sounds good and just as healthy as Judy's recipe.
Have been thinking I would need to buy a Ninja juicer, didn't think the TM31 would do the job well enough.

I think I might wear my Thermomix apron so you will be able to recognise me.

Would that train be the Express from Woodville to the city or the one that stops at all stations?
I sometimes go around the corner for stop at all stations or sometimes go to Woodville for the Express.

Yes I will be there. Would not miss it for quids.

Did you get something out of the class Ted? I noticed a lot of people on the TMX facebook page crying out for advanced classes so here's hoping someone is listening!

I had to take some Rapid 25's yesterday to recover a few aches and pains from helping my GL setup the hall, standing in the kitchen for a few hours wiping dishes, and then putting away all the chairs etc. I am OK today. Didn't get to see much but as it was a back to basics class it was pretty similar to the previous month, main difference was dishes prepared/cooked. The Lighthouse flour promo did expand on some bread making and I managed to watch the GL assemble the pull apart bread. Answer is yes, you always learn something new at even a Back to Basics class.

Another winner from Judy's repertoire. I made this yesterday afternoon before I went to the Prospect Back to Basic's class. DW finished it off with a stir fry vege dish she made up and some mashed potatoes.

I got home too late to eat, but I did taste it and it was exceptional. I am looking forward to lunch. DW and DS #2 enjoyed it as well.

Last night I was a little naughty, did not use the TM31 but cooked dinner (Kranski's, Asparugus, Zucchini, Eggplant and Tomatoes) on the Chimique.

DW did use the TM31 to whip the cream for the smashed Pavlova.

This afternoon I made some Jaffa Custard (Thanks Robyn for the recipe) and had it over some Strawberries. The Grandkids took home the remainder. I did the dark chocolate one and not the white chocolate one.

The Pork Fillet is 420g.

This recipe sounds so good I am considering doing it with the Loin of Lamb chops as well.

Naturally, I will post the results.

Bread / Re: Buttered Rosemary Rolls - with photo

Hally, our TMX arrived on 12 Oct 2010.

It was only about 2 weeks ago that we decided to try baking some bread. I am disappointed that we did not give it a try earlier.

I am not quite ready to try Sourdough, having too much fun baking and eating basic with a few tweaks, like adding Rosemary and Garlic to the dough mix.

Thanks again to all the contributors on this forum, without you we would not be using TMX as much as we are.

Just one thing, I did not use Thai Curry Paste, I used Laksa Paste. I am not sure of the difference.

On a different note, we are not good at using what is at our disposal, ie what is in the freezer. TMX however has changed that. In the freezer we have some Loin of Lamb chops, they will be going into a Varoma dish based on Veal Pizzaola from the EDC and there is a Pork Fillet. I have not yet decided what to do with that. I am sure this forum will surprise me when I go searching. We also have some Shark and some Crayfish that will not finish up in a Mornay.
