Thank you everybody for your very warm welcome notes  :)

I can't get over how this little piece of equipment works it's little guts out & how easy it is to use. For dinner last night I made us pumpkin soup, my bolognese sauce and a quick whip of frozen berries with a dash of cream. I saved at least 2.5 hrs using the Thermomix!

Pumpkin soup was divine and I was told my bolognese sauce cooked in the Thermomix is even better than the one I make on the stove which takes hours of simmering. I followed the "cooking directions" in the Everyday cookbook but used the ingredients that I normally used and added an extra 10 mins of cooking time at the end. Frozen berries & cream was really really smooth.

A friend commented on the steep price of my baby and that she doesn't think the price is justified. I completely disagree. My time is VERY important to me, and that is priceless  ;D

Hi Brenda,

Thank you for this brilliant suggestion. I stopped reading at the homemade haloumi bit and had to re-read again! Did you make the haloumi with your thermomix? I can't believe steamed rump works. I will definitely try this one.

Thanks again Brenda  :)

Hi All  :)

My name is Catherine and I have just taken delivery of my Thermomix last weekend. 4 weeks ago, I have never heard of it, now, I can't live without it.

I moved to a granny flat to be closer to work and have a metre & a half benchtop with cupboards underneath it as a "kitchen". For a very keen cook I was devasted with this and family & friends were worried they will never eat my home made food again. Then I discovered Thermomix (thanks Google) and all is well in the land of Cath  ;D

I have equipped myself with a benchtop combination oven/microwave/grill/stove, Thermomix and a Weber BabyQ on the patio and I can't think of anything these 3 cannot make.

Thank you Thermomix for making it possible to have a complete kitchen anywhere, and to this Forum so I can tap into the knowledge that everyone shares so very generously !!!
