      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

As we can't thicken this curry on the stove, I use chickpea flour to achieve a thicker, gravy-like consistency. If you prefer a thinner sauce, omit the chickpea flour.

  • Good flavours - I found 100g of chick pea flour...

    Good flavours - I found 100g of chick pea flour too much tho. Had quite a "gluey" texture. I think only needs 50g of flour at most (perhaps even only 25g). With this change will certainly be one of my "go to" recipes.

  • Really yummy and simple! I added a few tablespoons...

    Really yummy and simple! I added a few tablespoons of tomato paste and a big swirl of honey to give the tomato flavour a nice rich smack. But would've still been delicious (and more authentic) just as the recipe states! Thanks for sharing tmrc_emoticons.)
