      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

    Preparing the Slow Cooker
  1. Add stock and boiling water to the slow cooker. (I use home made stock paste prepared in my Thermomix.) Stir until the stock is distributed through the water.
  2. Add potatoes, 1 kg at a time into the Thermomix and blitz for 10 seconds/speed 5. Tipping each batch of potatoes directly into the slow cooker.
  3. Onions Mix
  4. Add leek and either the shallot or, onion and chives, to Thermomix in batches that never more than half fill the pot. Blitz them for 3 seconds/speed 5. Tip each batch of onion blend into a bowl.
  5. Add butterfly whisk to empty Thermomix bowl and return in all onion blend plus olive oil. Cook for 20 minutes/100°C/speed 1. Then add to the slow cooker.
  6. Spice Mix
  7. Add remaining ingredients, with half the chilli put aside, into a small bowl and lightly mix with the handle of a teaspoon. Test the aroma to ensure it is balanced and adjust quantities accordingly.
  8. Add the spice mix to a clean dry Thermomix bowl with butterfly whisk in place. Cook off for 12 minute/120°C/speed 1. Then add to the slow cooker.
  9. Cooking and Serving
  10. Stir all ingredients in the slow cooker through and allow to cook for approximately seven hours. When cooked either blend with a stab mixer or in the Thermomix to make a rich, smooth texture.
  11. Serve in a bowl, garnishing with remaining chives and chilli or a fresh garnish alternative. Consider serving with a side of bread.

This meal is prepared in the Thermomix for cooking in a 5 litre slow cooker. It is designed to be turned on when you walk out the door and be ready to eat as soon as you get home. It is designed with large families in mind.

(Also ensuring that power is drawn whilst solar panels are generating it rather than from the grid.)
