      Recipe is created for
      TM 5
      If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
      For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

Tip

My kids love this dish so I will add some Carrot, zuchinni, extra kale, spinach or mushrooms to the sauce. I add veggies just after sauteing the onions and blitz for 30sec Sp6. This allows me to hide a few extra vegetable in the sauce from master fussy!

 

We call them "Hulk Balls" as sometimes the kale will make them very green!

    Nice easy recipe to follow. Everyone loved these although I didn't have Kale so just used some parsley - still excellent. The sauce was very tasty. Went nicely with plain pasta, will definitely be making this again tmrc_emoticons.-)

    Thanks for your feedback. The vegetable stock paste made to TM recipe is salty, so i have ammended this recipe to adjust stock paste to personal taste.

    The kids loved these. I found them quite salty so I would reduce the salt next time, but will make them again for sure.
