I made the American brownie from the forum yesterday.
Reduced sugar and butter a bit, still yummy.

I tried a new muesli bar slice recipe today and the reviews are mixed. I think I wizzed up  the rolled oats a bit and it has more of a cake texture. Undecided if I will post it.

Got this sort of thing marinating now, with few tweaks. Beef skirt for fajitas.

Balsamic instead of red wine vinegar ( had none)
Blitzed a quarter lemon as well.

For fajitas when back tonight. Out all day will report later.

Edit: they were good. Slightly hot with all the pepper. The men wolfed it down. Cheaper than rump steak.

Success. Will post in non  thread.

I did Nan's Country Kitchen Curried Tuna Slice from here the other night. Mum and SD LOVED it! SD even helped himself to seconds, which he doesn't usually do

Yesterday did Osso Bucco in the pc. Will post under non thermomix recipes.

Trying to do one new recipe from every cook book I have , its going to take a while.

It's going to take more than a while with the amount of cookbooks you have Hally

Love this idea but have never managed to convert anything.  Could someone help the newbies with with how to go about this.

This posting on QuirkyJo's blog is a good place to start penji01.

I make a rough copy of what I think I'll do then make changes along the way.  Don't forget to do this because you will forget by the time you have finished the dish.   You can use existing similar recipes as a guide.

I do the same as Judy penji01

Good luck getting through all your cookbooks Hally

This week I have made Baf's chicken and Chelsea's Swiss Beef. Just about to pick out a couple of new recipes for next week

What a good idea Hally. Will try and do the same, glad I gave away 5 cookbooks recently.

We had an interesting chicken dish last night and very easy. So easy you don't need the thermomix.  Will post the recipe.

I have made Lamb Kofta Meatballs in Curry Sauce twice now from Bill Grainger's 'Easy' cookbook (page 109).  Really lovely and thermie does a great job on the herbs, garlic, onion etc, as well as the breadcrumbs.  Once I either make one recipe twice, or make a couple of recipes, my cookbook purchase is justified
