Recipe Book Recipe Reviews / Re: Jaffa custard
« on: August 20, 2011, 11:18:28 am »
Hi Susie,  I made a similar custard this evening to serve with ILBs very easy chocolate cake which was fresh out of the oven.  I based the recipe on the custard in the EDC (milk, eggs, sugar and flour) omitting lemon rind etc then when it had finished cooking I added around 50g of Lindt intense orange chocolate and stirred it through for 1 minute on speed 1.  Probably not exactly what you were thinking of, but a delicious choc orange result all the same.  Hope that helps, Lainie.

This cake is our favorite winter dessert, warm with cream or ice-cream - or both!  Those who love a strong lemony flavor will enjoy this one so I thought I would bump it so it doesn't get overlooked.  Thanks for a great recipe.

Fast Chicken Curry from the EDC just about ready and Trudy's Impossible Lemon Pie in the oven, both smell great and will be well received on this cold Melbourne evening.

Only three of us home for dinner this evening and fish was on the menu.  Very proud to report that we tried the Varoma for the first time and had a success, preparing CP's ginger steamed fish and Asian veg with rice [url][/http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=6031.0url].  I don't have a bamboo steamer so just placed the fish and veg directly into the Varoma.  I used sea perch fillets as they weren't too thick and i was worried about getting the timing wrong. The sauce was really nice - this was a winner and will become a regular in our house, thanks CP.  Don't know why I was tentative about trying the Varoma, very easy - off to look for tomorrow night's menu in the all-in-one area, and trying to resist the temptation to make something naughty (but yummy) for dessert on this cold wintry Melbourne night!

This is a really lovely sauce, much nicer than the EDC version.  MM I took your advice and made a large batch (x 1.5) to make up lasagna for the freezer which will come in handy on a busy work night.   Thanks!

Great recipe Trudy, this has become a regular on my list.  Today I omitted the nuts and dried fruit, mixed in some poppy seeds before baking and then added some cream cheese icing for a decadent afternoon tea - yum!

Thanks for this recipe Judy.  Made for a very tasty early dinner last night before heading out.  As we had already eaten the batch of rolls I made earlier in the day (!!!) I soaked some rice stick noodles in boiling water and served the soup over these - made for a delightful and filling meal.  Cheers, Lainie

Introduce Yourself / Another new TM owner from Melbourne
« on: June 18, 2011, 06:06:25 am »
Okay, figured it was time to stop stalking and join the conversation!  We took delivery of our TM back in March and it is slowly transforming our eating habits.  I work full time and our two adult children are still home while they study at uni so life is pretty hectic.  However slowly we are learning new skills and enjoying the journey along the way.  I am in awe of people who start off making bread - we have just graduated to this in the last week, next stop is yoghurt so wish me luck!  I have been inspired and gained a lot of confidence from everyone on this forum, and look forward to contributing along the way.
