Challenge #3 - Christmas Challenge!
« on: November 09, 2009, 06:58:58 am »
For this challenge you can do anything related to Christmas and your Thermomix:
  • Review a Christmas recipe that's already on the board (photos if possible please!)
  • Review a recipe from one of the books
  • or convert a recipe of your own or elsewhere and post on the board

Happy cooking!

here is the last challenge http://www.forumthermomix.com/index.php?topic=1949.0

I guess the best place to put them would be in the Christmas section or would somewhere else be better Karen?
I suppose reviews would go in reviews, drrr.

 ;D cookie!

I bought a turkey buffe at Woolies the other day as it was half price! It's in my freezer, so I'll be thinking of ways to use it for this challenge!!

A great cook is one who can rustle up a fabulous family meal with some freezer burnt chops, wilted carrots, sprouting potatoes and cabbage that's gone brown on the cut edges.

I cooked the turkey leg wrapped in bacon with potatoes (from Varoma cookbook) and it was really delicious, but took longer than the recipe said - I think it took about 1 3/4 hrs by the time it was completely cooked!  I was slicing bits off after an hour, because my dh had to eat and go to work... but the flavour was so yummy.  Think I'll have to tweak that one!

I've reviewed the shortbread from last years Festive book and will do a couple of others. I'll also post my Rum Balls recipe and perhaps a couple of other biscuits/slices I've adapted.

Tenina, that looks awesome. We always have a cold Christmas so I would say you have solved part of my problems of what to have this year. I love the new site too.
