      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 rice (no need to rinse), water, piece of ginger and stock into TM bowl and cook for 20 minutes, 100 degrees, soft spoon speed, REVERSE, MC ON.



    Check the water level. If you like a soupy consistency, then leave the water in there. If you like a thicker consistency then pour some of the water out, but not all of it.



    Add cooked chicken, fish sauce, coriander and sesame oil to the rice. Crack the egg directly into the rice. Cook a further 5 minutes, 100 degrees, soft spoon speed, REVERSE, MC OFF.



    Just before serving, remove the piece of ginger (or just be careful not to serve) and add garnishes of your choice. I have used fresh or crushed chilli, fried garlic, extra coriander, spring onions and a dash of soy sauce.

Tip

VARIATIONS

There are many variations to rice porridge and it can be suited to your preferred taste.

The egg can be omitted.

Alternatives to chicken for Khao Tom include prawns, fish, duck or roast pork.

You can leave out the chicken or use any meat you like.

If you are using raw chicken, place the diced chicken in the TM bowl at the start (allowing to cook for 20 minutes).



For a vegetarian option – use vegetable stock and add mushrooms, chopped onions, or any veggies you like.



Please note this is a small serve for 2-3 portions.



If you try this recipe, I would love it if you could leave a comment and rating – I appreciate all feedback.

    This was absolutely delicious. I added garlic in step 1, used bone broth instead of water and omitted the stock concentrate. I am hooked!

    Excusemyfrench: Hi, when using the butterfly you need to attach it between the two highest blades and check to make sure it is securely in place. Alternatively, you can cook this recipe without using the butterfly tmrc_emoticons.)

    Submitted by Gorgeouscyd on 31. May 2017 - 09:06.

    This is sooooo yummy, and super easy. I used left over chicken, and the consequent stock from steaming a whole chicken in the varoma the night before. Lovely flavours. I did add a little veggie stock concentrate, and poured the congee onto fresh spinach, letting it sit a couple of minutes to wilt the spinach, before eating.
    Thanks for sharingSmile

    Submitted by aldopham on 18. May 2017 - 09:10.

    No more burning and having to stand by the stove when cooking congee! Made this for my sick hubby last night and he practically inhaled the entire recipe in one sitting! Delish and so quick. I made a few variations:

    - included 1 clove of garlic to help boost the immune system (chopped this at the beginning before inserting the butterfly)
    - left out the egg; and
    - didn't remove any of the water as the congee thickens up if left standing for 5-10mins at the end. It was the perfect consistency!

    Thank for a flavoursome recipe.

    Submitted by eskimo20052006 on 1. May 2017 - 13:13.

    I've made this several times since discovering it. I have doubled it (big family), and it makes the butterfly float off. I haven't figured out a fix for this yet but it didn't really affect the end result. I skipped the fresh coriander and put in dried coriander. I didn't need to extend the cooking time either. It is absolutely delicious!!! I add kim chi, fried shallots and a splash of soy sauce. My kids LOVE it. Sometimes i use frozen chicken broth in the mix to add a gut health kick. I add a couple extra of these chicken broth ice cubes to my kids serve so it adds extra broth and cools it down enough for them to devour it immediately. Works a treat! Keep up the good work tmrc_emoticons.)

    Just made this now and eating as I type. So yum! I didn't have any coriander and the only garnish I have is soy sauce and fried shallots. Still delicious so I imagine it will be amazing with coriander, chilli and spring onions. Can't wait to try again when I'm better prepared.  Thanks for the recipe.

    Yummy, I didn't add the full 40g of coriander (that would have taken my whole plant), 5g was enough for me.

    Thanks for sharing! I added the shredded chicken, some crushed chilli and garlic halfway through cooking the rice to add depth of flavour. This was delicious!

    Hi Petiegirl,

    The piece of ginger is just put in whole and then remove it once cooked.

    The prawns sound lovely, I'm glad you liked it tmrc_emoticons.)

    I would've put raw prawns in for the last 5 minutes or so, to prevent them overcooking tmrc_emoticons.)

    Yum! super easy and very tasty. Loved by all. I made it with Prawns and put them in at the same time as you would the chicken. With the ginger, did you chop, put it in whole or shred? Thanks for sharing.
