      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

This served 2 adults for a main meal (quite large serves) but would also be suitable as a side dish for 4 people.

I used 200g of bone broth when I made it (see photo) but it may be a bit too runny for some hence why I have reduced to 150g in the ingredient list. If you prefer a more creamy 'risotto' feel free to replace 50g of the liquid with an extra 50g of coconut cream.

    I put this in a small baking pan and baked it with a sprinkle of parmesan and served it as a side dish. I also grilled all the bacon (as the first time I cooked this dish the bacon added at the beginning wasn't crisp) and stirred it in at the end. Very tasty!
