Thermomix Egg Boiler Potato and Asparagus Salad
If you have a TM6 this recipe is a bit of a show off. If you don't you can certainly proceed, but cook everything as you would normally.
If you are a TM6 owner, this recipe is a bit of a showcase of the egg boiling feature. Watch the video for how it came about. I love it because I get to keep my asparagus looking pristine and bright in all its lengthy glory. You can of course make this recipe the usual way, follow the method for Pesto Potato Salad and you are all but there.
The Cooked Aioli is also so delicious, you may end up using it as a dip with veggies. (Or Crackers...heaven knows we couldn't stop dipping things into it!)
Have fun kids...what else have you used this feature for? Come on, be honest!!)
