Vegetarian / Some Photos of these Carrot and zucchini fritters

I made these yesterday and found them very tasty and so simple to make. I had no ricotta so I used Quark and it worked well.

(extension of the view LOL)

Easy and tasty

I have just rectified a mistake I made - 6 minutes on speed 4 with butterfly...

Thanks Barbara - great tip.  I have the Christina galliano book somewhere (one of those illegal pdf copies from the internet)

Thanks again  :-* :-* :-* :-*

I know about those copies....

I am now going to try this version to make the base for tiramisu. Last month I made a sponge cake as a base for this dessert and let it rest in the fridge for 1 day and as the days where passing (it was quite a big amount) the dessert kept improving both in taste and structure so I am making it today for Sunday (sound odd I know - reminds me of JulieO's German Cherry cake).
I will let you know of the outcome
Barbara


p.s.

I have made the cake but did not notice much improvemente. Sorry

I learned the following method which has worked well for me:
Cut potatoes into smallish cubes, place butterfly over blades, put on the scale, place potatoes in Tm and add half the weight minus 100grs of milk, some butter, salt and any other seasoning you usually add. Programme 25 minutes, 100 on speed 3 and ignore the bubbling of milk which comes up for the first 5 or 10 minutes. Normally, at the end of cooking time the consistence is perfect and needs no further processing.

I will post the index but maybe your client would like to know that a new basic cook book has come out recently - as per information received by my demonstrator. The previous one and all other portuguese books are for sale on the Vorwerk Portuguese site online.

Copied from Cristina Galliano’s Spanish Thermomix recipe book and translated by myself.
How to make a quality sponge:
Start by mixing the flour and the baking powder for 30 seconds on speed 3. This is to incorporate air in the mixture, previously we would pass the flour through a sieve held high to incorporate air (at least this is how Delia Smith tells one to do it)

All cakes/sponges are processed by the same method in the Thermomix and the trick for them to come out of the oven very airy and high is put over the butterfly over the blades and beat the sugar and the whole eggs with no temperature for 6 minutes on speed 4 until the mixture takes on a pale colouring. Using no heat makes the batter spongier.

The flour is the last item to be added to the batter and incorporated gently only for 2 seconds on speed 4, to avoid spoiling the airy sponge batter. If 2 seconds is not enough then programme further 1 or 2 seconds (my note: then I would use a whisk and incorporate the flour gently by hand - this is the crucial point in cakes as here all is saved or all is spoiled)

Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / Re: EDC Sponge cake - Don't bother

I wonder if anyone has tried the tip from Cristina Galliano to make a airy sponge: Pulverize sugar until really fine, put butterfly in place, add eggs (yolk and white) and beat for 6 minutes! with temperature 37º open speed 3,5 and repeat for another 6 minutes same speed, no temperature. NO MICROCUP in place to let air into the TM. It always surprises me the amount of air that is incorporated this way. Then add the flour gently for 10 seconds on speed 3, so not to disturb the air in the dough. I sometimes incorporate the flour with a whisk by hand and do not bother to turn the TM on.

I have translated the tips and tricks from Cristina Galliano on cake making http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=3375.0

On the notes I have translated the beating times are a little different and have no temperature, I can't really explain why, sorry.

There was a basic starter soup in the latest Bimby Magazine - fill up the main body with loads of different vegetables (800grs) and in the varoma they had a chicken breast, a fillet of fish and some veal, all in those plastic bags you can cook in the varoma with (and in the oven - they are heat resistant). Then all is cooked for 30 minutes - temp. varoma, speed 1. Remove varoma, add some olive oil, and process soup to satisfaction. Reserve soup. Add 600grs to TM and process again with one of the meat and then repeat with other meat and fish. This makes quite a few portions of starter baby soup with three different sources of protein.

I made these scones last Sunday and they are really wonderful. Thank you for a fantastic recipe. Scones can be fiddly and hard once baked but these are great. I made half a recipe and it made many - cut with the mc.
I converted into grams as follows:
510g self raising flour
2 tbsp sugar
pinch of salt
200g cream
250g milk

Non Thermomix Recipes / Re: Char grilled Italian vegetables

I won't bother as the peel does not bother me - when grilling on charcoal the skin comes of easily - its just that Paul suggesting skinning before grilling and I thought I was missing a vital point. But I am happy - have done this recipe now 3 times (once without the seasoning, only the olive oil) and all made a lovely salad.

Thank you - I will have to check it as I bought some month ago... and must say Iput it in rice (not risotto) and did not think the taste was wonderful - It might be one of those taste one has to "adquire"....
