      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.

Recipe's preparation

  1. Place cheese in TM bowl and grate for 5-10 seconds on speed 8. Set aside in a small bowl.

  2. Add onion, garlic, bacon and olive oil to the TM bowl and chop for 3 seconds on speed 5.  Scrape down walls and saute for 5 mins / 115° (or use the Varoma temp in the TM31) / speed 1.

  3. Add potato and cauliflower (see notes below) up to the MAX line in your TM bowl. Add vegie stock paste and water. Don't worry that it doesn't look like there is enough water added as there is a lot of moisture going to be released from the vegetables. You can always add more liquid at the end, if you feel the soup is too thick.

    Cook for 30 mins / 100° / Counter-clockwise operation / speed 1.

  4. Puree the hot soup by slowly increasing the speed of the blades up to speed 9 for about a minute.

  5. Season to taste with salt and pepper and add the nutmeg. Pour into a ThermoServer and serve with the grated cheese (to be sprinkled over each individual serve).

Tip

You could use any other vegetables if you don't have enough cauliflower. Why not substitute some of the cauliflower with broccoli and/or zucchini?

  • YUMMO!...

    YUMMO!
    I purchased a cauliflower with the intention of using another recipe but couldn't find it sooooo I came along this one. Am so glad I did. This soup is so easy to make, has ingredients that you would normally have on hand and is super delicious! The only thing I did differently was omit nutmeg as I forgot. Will definitely make this one again.

  • Energisehealth, you are

    Submitted by Carola Cocacola on 11. June 2015 - 21:16.

    Energisehealth, you are correct. Sorry, I use both machines. In the TM31 you would use the VAROMA temp as this is actually 114° anyway. In the TM5 the varoma temp is variable. tmrc_emoticons.)

  • Is this a TM5 recipe as TM31

    Submitted by Energisehealth on 4. June 2015 - 17:12.

    Is this a TM5 recipe as TM31 doesn't have 115 degrees?

  • Sorry Grannymay, but you must

    Submitted by Carola Cocacola on 19. May 2015 - 12:02.

    Sorry Grannymay, but you must have a different machine to the Thermomix. I am not familiar with blade guards or switching blades. Maybe read your manual?? Good luck.

    Submitted by jo_q75 on 17. May 2015 - 19:11.

    I added 1/4 cup of soaked cashew nuts before doing step 4 (puree). This thickened the soup and made it a little creamy. Pretty good!

    Do you grate by using the blade attachment? I am a new user. Not sure when to use the blade guard.

    Delicious!  I have hated cauliflower since I was a child but in an effort to eat more vegies thought I would give this a go.  So pleased I did.  I left the cheese out and it was still amazing.  Thank you!
