      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

Cream in Streusal:-
The cream helps to hold the streusal together a little more. But it is your choice!

Mashed Potatoes
:-
1. When having a meal with mashed potatoes, save 125 g of the mash (BEFORE putting pepper in it!!). I save it before I've put milk or butter or anything into it, but that is up to you. The recipe will still work out well!
2, This mashed potato will store in an airtight container in the fridge for 4-5 days, so no immediate rush to make this cake!

    Great that it stirred the memories. I will try it with the salt. This was my mums recipe, but she just added a bit of this and a bit of that!! I tried to duplicate it as best I could. So glad it is close.

    I have made this recipe twice now and it turned out perfectly both times.
    The only change I made was a large pinch of salt in the streusal.
    It tastes just like I remember from living in a German community in my childhood!
