      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.

    Add the garlic, onion (& chill if using) to the TM bowl & chop for 3 secs / speed 5

    Using your hands, squeeze the milk from the bread & add the bread, chutney, sugar, vinegar & lemon juice to the meat.

    Cook for a further 3 mins / 100 degrees /Counter-clockwise operation/ speed 1

    Empty the mince mixture into a greased dish. If you are using almonds, push them into the mince.

    Without washing out the bowl, beat the eggs & 250g milk (10 secs / speed 5), and pour over the meat.

    Put three bay leaves for decoration on top of the meat. 

    Place the dish uncovered in the oven and cook for about 30 minutes at 180 deg or until the egg has set & is a golden brown.

  • Have made this recipe twice -

    Submitted by 252bella on 6. January 2015 - 11:15.

    Have made this recipe twice - excluding the almonds and sultanas.

    I have found the bottom layer of mince turns out quiet fine and can run on the plate when dished up, however, not really an issue for me.

    Give it a go, its a unique dish with delicious flavours and enjoyed by everyone that has tried it...It is one of those dishes that makes you wanting more!
