Recipe Requests / Butternut squash and red pepper soup
« on: October 07, 2011, 06:32:01 pm »
Hi all. I had Butternut squash and red pepper soup at lunchtime today in a restaurant and it was delicious. There was a hint of chilli in it too. Does anyone have a recipe I could try using the thermomix? The consistency was very similar to the standard carrot and coriander in the TMX recipe book.
Thanks

Hi pietro, welcome to the forum.  I could find no lemon mousse recipe in our books but found this one which would be easily converted for the TMX if you are interested.

I would beat the egg whites first then set aside.  Making sure the TM bowl is perfectly clean and dry, place the butterfly in place, add the eggs and beat for 5 minutes/50o/speed 3. Remove from bowl and set aside. No need to clean the bowl or the butterfly, add the cream, lemon zest and I'd use icing sugar not castor sugar. Whisk on speed 4 until the cream just starts to thicken. Don't leave it, keep an eye on it - it will depend on how fresh your cream is as to how long it takes to get to this stage but it won't be long.  I watch it through the hole in the lid with a torch. Add the lemon juice and continue beating until it thickens further then fold the beaten egg whites into the mixture by hand with a spatula.
Brilliant, I'll give it a try!
Thanks

Hi all
Recently got our Thermomix and loving the soups in this cold weather.
Can any of you help? I'm trying to find a lemon mousse recipe which I thought would be a good use of the TM. Can't seem to find one in the recipe book or on the search here.
Thanks
