    So Glad you liked it tmrc_emoticons.) Im glad you workd out a way to do it with Rice and Quinoa. I used to do it with Rice but found it didnt cook properly plus My husband isnt a fan of rice and loves potato. My family always askfor this one too tmrc_emoticons.) I actually use the Cathy's 3 C's Spice mix instead of the ground cummin and corriander, which is on the community too. Have a go mixing some up and you can use it for all sorts of things :0 it has a couple of freshly ground cinnamon sticks in it too. Much better when using freshly ground spices

  • Cooked this with rice mixed

    Submitted by megavoltz on 28. August 2014 - 19:41.

    Cooked this with rice mixed with quinoa instead of potato in the basket, so I increased the tomato sauce recipe by around 50% (600g tomato, 250g water and a bit over 1 heaped tbsp of stock concentrate). Also I increased the cooking time to 45min. The result was a beautiful dish with incredibly flavoursome tomato rice... Can't wait to make this dish again. Hubby kept on goshing about how yummy it was! And even better is it's a large dish so for a family of 4 including 2 young kids there was enough leftover for a few more meals. It could have easily fed a much larger family.

    Thanks for sharing the recipe. Loved it!

    Try reducing the amount of water in the bottom or add a bit of corn flour to the sauce and cooking for a few minutes on 90 degrees speed 4 for 3 minutes.

    Thermomix delivered today, and I made this spicy chicken for dinner.  Tasted great, but the tomato sauce was still very runny don't know what I did wrong?  I used a can of diced tomatoes.  Thanks for sharing recipe tmrc_emoticons.)

  • Thanks Sweet Chilli, i used

    Submitted by CathyM on 12. January 2013 - 14:46.

    Thanks Sweet Chilli, i used to do this with rice in the basket instead of potato but as you found out it takes a little longer to cook as the tomato blocks the holes to the rice. its really good with tomato rice though. i would usually cook and stir cook and stir the rice and then just throw it in the thermoserver and it would carry  on cooking in there. it was a bit complecated for peole on the forum who need direct instructions but if you use your common sense and imagination you can do all sorts tmrc_emoticons.)

    glad to see other people using their intuition when it comes to cooking Big Smile

    Submitted by CathyM on 11. September 2012 - 18:45.

    Yes you are probably right Fatbat (if i can call you that ) haha   Marinating the chicken over night would be delicious. i am just not that organised most of the time lol tmrc_emoticons.;)

    Submitted by fatbat on 26. July 2012 - 12:20.

    I can recommend this but removed chilli due to being a family feed for the little ones too.  Very tasty and easy to make.  Would be tastier if marinaded a little longer (ovvernight) as the flavours obviously infuse further with time - the leftovers the following day were great!

    yes you can use whatever you like. You can ommit the bacon or speck if you like. i just had some speck one night and added it to this dish and it was delicious. it is a little harder to find. i get it from my butcher. it has such a wonderful flavour.
