      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.

Recipe's preparation

    Toum
  1. Place garlic cloves & salt into the Thermomix bowl & chop for 5 secs speed 7. Scrape down the sides of the bowl & repeat once more, including scraping down the bowl again. Insert the butterfly & turn the speed on to speed 4, keep it on for the next 8 - 10 mins.

    Wait till the garlic has made a smooth paste before slowly pouring 1/2 a cup of oil onto the lid so it trickles into the bowl, once this is incorporated slowly add 1/2 teaspoon of the lemon juice, in the same way. Repeat this process of slowly adding 1/2 cup of oil & 1/2 teaspoon of lemon juice until you have used up all your ingredients.

     

    Note: Don't use heavy oils like Olive Oil or Avocado Oil or Sesame Seed Oil as they give a strong and bitter taste to the garlic. Use lighter oil such as safflower/sun flower/canola/vegetable oils.If the resulting garlic paste is too biting/strong, you could either mix it with a mashed medium size baked (or boiled) potatoe, or you can increase the amount of oil.You could also add a small pinch of citric acid in the beginning with the garlic and salt to make the paste more tangy.

    Too strong for my tastebuds so I add an extra half a cup of sunflower oil which helped. Next time I will try 100g of garlic. Very easy recipe to follow and great texture.

    This recipe is so delicious! I have made it so many times and my Lebanese boyfriend eats it with everything, so do I now! We make it weekly and it has only split once, I think because I added the oil too quickly. Thanks for the great recipe! Smile

    Henny8: consider it the tomato sauce of Lebanese cooking. A great accompaniment to chicken, meat or potatoes, spread it on top or dip into. Also can be added to your cooking when asked for garlic, I would not add it to fresh salads.

  • How long does it keep for?...

    Submitted by Oonga on 26. July 2017 - 10:24.

    How long does it keep for?

    Just wondering with the raw garlic if it's one of those recipes that keeps for only about 3 days or so?

    Argh. It was going so well nice and white and a lot. Then suddenly at the end it's just an oily watery mess. Did I put the oil in too fast by the end of it. Tmx temp was going up as time went on too.

    I had big expectations for this!!!

    Submitted by MeganHangan on 2. September 2016 - 16:26.

    This was delicious! Sadly, mine split so was a watery mess (perhaps I added the oil to fast?) so I emptied the jug and put a small amount of the mixture back in with an egg white and whipped it up for a while 30-60 secs, and slowly drizzled the original mix back in and it worked a treat! Turned out perfectly. Leftovers were beautfiul to marinate a leg of lamb with for roasting!

  • No not a mistake - it makes a

    Submitted by ArwensThermoPics on 30. April 2015 - 07:22.

    No not a mistake - it makes a lot. But I found when converting the recipe beacuse we are using garlic as the emulsifier that we needed to make a full batch to have the start of emulification with all that garlic. It is so amazing not having any eggs in it!

  • I dated a Lebanese guy for 5

    Submitted by stiltkins75 on 21. April 2015 - 07:47.

    I dated a Lebanese guy for 5 years before meeting my husband. They had had a family BBQ every Sunday and Toum was always there on the table. You tear off a peice of lebanese bread, put some chicken or whatever meet you are cooking with, wrap it up and then dip it into the Toum. 

    We also used to rip the lebanese bread in 1/2, lather on the toum and then BBQ, it's the most delish garlic bread!

    Fantastic with BBQ chicken, salad and lebanese bread.  Break off a piece of chicken with bread and dip in the sauce.  Also good with baked or grilled chicken too.
