Steaming with Matt Sinclair

Thermomix® TM6 Ambassador Matt Sinclair has created a mouth-watering recipe collection for Cookidoo which you have the opportunity to try at one of his Signature cooking experiences. Explore the exquisite flavours, and multi-layer convenience, if his recipes today!

Matt’s Steamed Red Curry Fish is a beautiful example for the flavoursome versatility that layered Thermomix® cooking brings to simple meal preparation. By cooking with the Varoma and simmering basket you succulently steamed fish fillet with the heat and aromas of the fragrant red curry sauce – cooking in the mixing bowl.

His velvety Steamed Banana Puddings with Honey Ginger Crème Anglaise are gently steamed in the Varoma to lock in flavour and moisture. Alongside the silky-smooth crème anglaise, which is delicately stirred and heated in the mixing bowl – this delectable dessert is an absolute crowd pleaser (and quick enough to pull together as a mid-week treat!)

The eastern origins of steaming

The art of steaming food is an old tradition with strong roots in Asia.

Multi-layer cooking with the Thermomix® incorporates layers of flavours and steaming to save time and space when preparing meals. Steaming is a traditional and time-honoured way to cook. For thousands of years the Chinese have utilised layered bamboo steaming baskets to cook vegetables, fish, breads, dumplings and fruits – preparing an entire meal on the various levels of baskets at the one time. So, dust off your Varoma and get steaming! Steaming with Thermomix® is just one way to make meals simpler, sooner and healthier.
