      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

The chicken will shred, if you prefer chunky chicken add the butterfly whisk.

Any vegetable can be used, as long as they are chopped smallish, the pumpkin does break down and adds to the thickness of the puree. I throw in whatever vegetables that are 0 smart points.

For additional flavour, chopped coriander is a lovely addition. Enjoy tmrc_emoticons.)
