It was delivered by ninja van. We waited at home just to receive the package.
We put it next to the window so that the smoke will go out from there.
Next we need to connect it to the internet so we can access the cookidoo online recipes.
Our first recipe using TM6 was mint lemonade and fried bee hoon.
It was successful and taste not bad. Loved the mint lemonade. For the bee hoon, we just rinse the dried bee hoon. No soaking was needed. We added the canned stewed pork meat, carrots, cabbage and fish cake. The carrot and cabbage was cooked till soft and nice and without the raw taste and bee hoon was al dente. Overall, it did a pretty good job cooking bee hoon.
For dinner, we tried out the mapo tofu and turned out like this. Not a success coz it looked like some regurgitated vomit. However, tastewise was spot on. We had some difficulties using the butterfly whisk and also the instruction on the cookidoo was not accurate in the sense that it did not tell us to use the reverse mode after adding the tofu. Maybe that’s why it turned out like this. Will need to fine tune the recipe again....
We found it excellent in cooking vegetables such as this Chinese spinach or chye sim etc. We followed the instructions on cookidoo for stir fried vegetables and making some tweaks to it by replacing the salt with oyster sauce and adding mushroom and fish cakes to it.
The vegetables turned out better than me cooking it on the stove coz it’s not overcooked or yellow at all. The vegetables were cooked perfectly with a slight crunch to it. I believe the temperature was well maintained to prevent overcooking so as to maintain the nutritional value of the vegetables.
There were so many recipes that I have yet to try out. So glad I’ll be able to have more home cooked food from now onwards. Yeah....
