      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.

    If I wanted to cook it without the pasta, would I just omit the water, and keep eveything else the same? Has anyone tried this?

    Submitted by SHAZ90 on 13. August 2020 - 19:06.

    AMAZING!!!! I added some garlic cloves in step one, and I decided to use chicken stock instead of vegetable stock.
    I didn't add chicken because it didn't defrost nicely - but "creamy bacon carbonara" .. WOW!
    I also added 100ml of white wine when I added the hot water, cream and stock.
    Thick creamy sauce!!
    I'll be using this as my go-to carbonara from now on!! Delicious. Thankyou!

    Yep I was dubious about the all-in-one-pot approach but it turned out great thank you! Put my GP spaghetti in after the first 5 mins of the 15min cook and added mushrooms and broccoli 5 mins before the end. Will definately use this recipe again thank you!

    Tonight I made it for a second time and didn't realise until it was too late that we didn't have thickened cream so instead I substituted it for a quick white sauce cooked in the saucepan but a little bit more of a thinner consistency and worked PERFECTLY! Wow 😍

    Submitted by Sue Fros on 15. May 2019 - 19:59.

    Loved that it was all cooked in the bowl together. I thought the pasta might not have held its shape, but it was perfect! This recipe fed 5 adults a decent serving size each. Still room in the bowl to add more pasta for when there are 7 of us, will just increase the water. It will be a regular addition to my family meal plan - thanks for sharing 😋
    served with pizza bianca - delish!

    Submitted by JulieB64 on 7. March 2019 - 20:52.

    Nice base recipe, I added mushrooms and garlic. I don't like the flavour of dried italian herbs so I used fresh herbs stirred through at the end. Topped with grated parmesan. Next time I'll cut the chicken into bigger pieces as they broke up too much. Will definitely make again though, such a quick, easy recipe. Thanks for sharing.

    Omg yes! Perfect! So quick and easy! Definitely going on regular rotation.

    I increased the cooking time a little at the end as the pasta wasn't soft enough, my chicken and bacon weren't fully defrosted when i started though, so that may have contributed.

    Was a bit hit in our house, I left the Italian herbs out simply because I didn’t have any and I cooked it for an extra 5 mins as the fettuccine wasn’t cooked after the 15mins.

    Submitted by Princesspogo on 28. July 2017 - 20:29.

    The first time I made this it wasn't real crash hot. Totally my fault. I didn't use hot water and so had to keep cooking it forever. I think maybe the chicken was still partially frozen too. I failed big time. Anyway, I've made it since and love it. If I follow the recipe properly it turns out perfect. Simple and tasty. I add garlic and don't use all the herbs. I'm now using this recipe as a base to convert an old recipe I used to make to the thermie. Creamy chicken pesto with mushrooms and sun dried tomatoes. It's turned out pretty well so far. Still tweaking and experimenting.

    I'd suggest to stop and stir the spaghetti otherwise the stuff on top doesn't get cooked, cooked mine for another 5mins to cook the pasta, but I also added a tsp of garlic and a handful of Parmesan cheese, didn't have veggie stock but added a tsp of chicken instead

    I made this for dinner tonight! I added a clove of garlic at the first step and then cooked for an extra 5 minutes because it was quite runny but I realised it thickens upon standing so I won't cook it longer next time. Definitely a winner here!

    Yummy, quick & easy.

    i had a coles roast chook that I needed to use up so made this recipe. I put chicken in with the bacon However because it was already cooked I should have put it in at the same time as the pasta as it turned to mush (still extremely tasty though) mst 7 & mst 8 enjoyed even though they asked for no chick so the recipe worked well in the end. Will be making again for sure  tmrc_emoticons.)
