    Amazing! My first dinner cooked in my thermo and everyone loved it. My fussy teen had seconds and ate onion and didn't even realise it, my mum (who eats very little) had seconds, husband had seconds, the youngest liked it and there is left over for tomorrow. This is going on the dinner menu as a regular!

  • Perfect recipe!...

    Submitted by LilKimmy89 on 17. July 2018 - 19:00.

    Perfect recipe!

    This recipe was devine and super easy! I also added 2 cloves of garlic at step one and cooked the recipe for 18min total with 50g added boiling water. Perfect consistency! I also cooked mine with tha MC off which maybe made a difference.

    Not bad for the time it too and I had all the ingredients. Used coconut cream in place of thickened cream as that's all I had. Added 50gms of extra water and cooked 3 minutes longer.
    Kids loved it!

    Submitted by CamNiksMum on 20. November 2017 - 18:54.

    Not sure what I did wrong, but it's certainly not as creamy as the picture. I did add veg, but it seemed to take forever to cook. I had to repeate the cooking process three times! The pasta was just too hard otherwise. And the chicken has shredded. Think I'll find a different recipe. Tastes ok, but not the consistency I'd like.

    Live, Laugh. Love. Eat!

    i used half tarragon and half mixed herbs, added an extra 50g water and found my fettuccini pasta needed an extra ten minutes cooking time.

    Even with more water, it was still very thick. Chicken and pasta was literally shredded. Is there anything that can be done to prevent this? i used speed 1 on reverse for 15 minutes as stated on the recipe. Thanks!
