Thermomix - The World's Smallest Kitchen

The best way to a man's heart is through his stomach, they say. But nowadays, not everyone has the time to learn to cook the right way.

Thermomix TM5 - world's smallest kitchen

Thus, I think Thermomix TM5 is the best gift that anyone can give to anybody. Why? As it is a unique all-in-one kitchen appliance that combines highly accurate electronic weighing scale, a super-fast food processor, and an efficient food mixer, it enhances the way you cook by helping you unlock your full culinary potential while saving your money, time and effort.
How is that even possible you say? Thermomix TM5 is dubbed as the smallest kitchen in the world as it combines all these 12 appliances into one amazing gadget that just takes up slightly more surface area on your worktop than an A4-sized sheet of paper.

1. Weighing
2. Mixing
3. Chopping
4. Grinding
5. Kneading
6. Blending
7. Steaming
8. Cooking
9. Whisking
10. Controlled Heating
11. Stirring
12. Emulsifying

Last week, I was invited to a cooking session with Olivia Tan (Cook With Olivia) using Thermomix TM5. It was an amazing experience as she showed us how to cook a full and yummy chicken rice under 40 minutes, using just one kitchen appliance which is the Thermomix TM5. She even let the Thermomix TM5 smash and grind the ingredients for her. And when the chicken rice was done, she was still looking pretty, minus the occasional oil splash on the apron that always happens to me when I was in the kitchen (which happen very rarely hahaha).

Chicken Rice

Tamarind Prawns

Hokkien Fried Noodles

As she was using three Thermomix TM5 during the 40 minutes of cooking demonstration, she managed to prepare lemonade drink, man tao buns, chicken rice, Hokkien fried noodles and tamarind prawns. And the worktop is not messy at all! The food was all very delicious!
Olivia Tan is an amazing chef and that is why the food was delicious, one would say. Fret not as Thermomix TM5 is revolutionising cooking in the kitchen with technology by going digital, mentioned JC Lim, Executive Director of Thermomix Malaysia. With its Thermomix Recipe Chips that is preloaded with 175 recipes, one will be guided through the steps to produce an amazing feast of dishes, making cooking so easy and effortless - even for people with no culinary experience. So, there will be no more overcooked fried mee hoon or disastrous-taste laksa. Haha.

Together with the demonstration, Olivia Tan's Cooking book was also launched. Entitled "Cooking With Olivia: Chinese Flavours" the book is a collaboration between Olivia Tan and Thermomix Malaysia aims to develop a deeper appreciation of Straits Chinese style cooking which is uniquely flavourful due to the pervasive use of spices and ingredients from the region.

Olivia Tan, who is of Chinese Hakka and Malaysian Nyonya descent, was very proud to have shared her family's favourite dishes in the book and she recreated the authentic taste of the dishes using Thermomix TM5 too!
Some amazing facts about cooking with Thermomix that really strike me fancy are:

• With controlled heating, one will produce a healthy meal as there will be no overheating of oil
• You can cook rice at the bottom layer, steam chicken slices on the middle compartment and prepare steamed vegetables and steamed egg on the top layer, under 40 minutes, using just ONE Thermomix TM5. The best is, your meal is super healthy too!

I can be a great chef with Thermomix TM5

So, when will Thermomix Malaysia gonna give me Thermomix TM5 for a test drive?
