Mango Ice Cream


This is the first thing I made from the newly opened thermomix!  How easy is that just to cut and freeze up some fruits and fresh ice-cream any time, anyflavors! All natural and sugar free!
The thermomix calls for some sugar and condensed milk, I assure you can do without them and it still taste creamy and sweet, just make sure you choose the very ripe mango!
Sole Ingredient!
2-3 Ripe mango (I prefered 'lily' mango)
Method:
1. Peel and cut into 1x1in cube, freeze well.
2. Put into Tm bowl, dial up to speed10 for 10-20second.

Watch out it turn from flaky ice to creamy in split second, serve immediately or store in fridge.

Gluten Free, Flour-less carrot cake

The white staffs are bad, white flour, white sugar, white rice, white bread.... Not just bad for diabetic people, but if we all eat like a diabetic people we will not have diseases in the first place.
White staff are mere starch and calories with minimal vitamins and nutrients. I quit baking for a while after deciding to be healthy, but i miss the fun of baking, how to bake without flour, sugar and butter?
Thanks to various recipe online and I found some amazing flour-less recipe that open up a new baking world to me.
This recipe uses 100% quinoa grain. Quinoa is high in essential amino acid and great source of protein compared to normal cereal and its gluten free. Iti is called the mother-of-all-grain by the Incas people.
To make 'flour' out of it, I simply pulverize it with Thermomix. The thermy did such a good job that I can even sift the gounded quinoa!
The carrot cake turn out to be so spongy moist and soft, you can't tell it has NO FLOUR! It remain soft and moist the next day!

-Quinoa flour 1c (pulverize from quinoa grain)
-Brown Sugar 1/3c(reduced)
-Carrot 1-1/2c
-Olive oil 1/2c
-Baking soda 1tsp
-Baking powder 1tsp
-Cinnamon powder 1tsp,
-Nutmeg powder 1/4tsp
-SeaSalt pinch
-Egg 2
-Pineapple jam(homemade)1tbsp
-Raisin 1/2c, some walnut, pineapple chucks.

1.Sift all dry ingredient in a seperate bowl
2.Mix sugar, oil together well, add in egg one at a time.
3.Fold in dry ingredient
4.Add in carrot, raisin n walnuts
5.Bake at 170 for 15-18min

Anzac Cookies


I love to make this cookies even before I have the thermomix simply because this cookies do not need a mixer nor require to soften the butter, I like to be able to go bake the cookies at the spur of the moment without having to take the butter out of the fridge and wait for it to soften at room temperature, yawning!
My son learn about this cookies on our family trip to Australia/NZ some years ago, the hotel has a big jar of Anzac cookies(I thought was house made) on its counter and Nicholas taken some and eventually finished the whole jar by the second day, he forced me to ask for a refill and I thought I might as well ask for a recipe, the hotel manager was so kind that he gave us the entire bag of unopen store bought anzac cookies (instead of the recipe), my son make sure none of us open the pack until we reached home. I googled up the recipe and never stopped making them since! Now it is even easier with my thermy as I can melt the butter all in the same bowl!

Rolled oats 1cup
Desiccated coconut 1 cup
Flour 1 cup
Brown Sugar 1 cup (reduced version: 3/4c)
Maple syrup or honey 2tbsp
Baking soda 1tsp
Butter or olive oil 1/2cup, 125g, half block.
Salt 1/4 tsp
Boiling water 2tbsp
Cinnamon, nutmeg powder 1tsp each


Method:
1.Melt butter and honey in saucepan; or TM bowl 90c/2min/2
2.Dissolved baking soda in boiling water, add into butter mixture (it will bubble up)
3.Mix together sugar/flour/oat/coconut/spice , at speed4, pour into butter mixture until all combine
4.Bake 10-12min at 160c, longer if you prefer crunchier.
