Keep-Your-Hands-Clean Garlic and Ginger Marinade

We all need a handful of meals that we can pull together in the shortest of times.  Of course, having a Thermomix in your kitchen makes that task very easy.  It's the nights when I am really pushed for time that I appreciate my Thermomix the most.

Marinated BBQ Thigh Fillets with Steamed Vegetables and Cauli Rice

This marinade is one that we use often in our house. It is fast and fresh and can be served a multitude of ways.

The best part of this marinade, besides the flavour, is that you don't have to get your hands dirty.

It is probably too easy to even warrant calling it a recipe....let's call it inspiration. I think it's worth sharing.

We most often use tenderloins and steam it with cauliflower rice and vegetables.  The whole meal taking around 16 minutes to cook.
