Is it Corned Beef or Silverside? I had no idea what to call this recipe. I grew up hearing the name silverside. Although I've always called it corn beef. I think the correct name may be corned beef as it refers to the preparation process. For the purpose of today, I am making Thermomix corned beef.

The first time I made corn beef in the Thermomix it was a revelation! Steaming the beef in the Varoma keeps so much more moisture in the meat. The result was a delicious,"melt in the mouth,"piece of corn beef.

Choosing the best piece of meat
When you're selecting the meat to make a Thermomix corn beef, it's important to choose a fairly consistent, rectangular-shaped cut. I usually choose meat which is 1.7kgs, or thereabouts. This size piece of meat allows the steam to circulate well ensuring an even cook.

Adding some Vegetables
Whilst the corned beef was cooking I also added some new, baby potatoes to the internal steaming basket. The potatoes were added in the last 45 minutes, and they cooked perfectly. Allowing the water from the corned beef to cook the potatoes resulted in some rather delicious spuds!
In the last 4 - 5 minutes of cooking time you can also through some broccoli or cauliflower in with the corned meat for a complete meal.
What to Do With Leftover Corned Beef
Leftover Corned Beef is delicious on sandwiches with this delicious homemade Choko Pickles.

Oh, and in case you're wondering, silverside refers to a description of the cut of meat used for corned beef in Australia. That's why we quite often call it silverside.

This was a beautiful way to cook the silverside. Well cooked, tender and moist.Reply
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Anne
Thank you so much for your lovely message. I am always surprised at just how tender the meat is when it is cooked in the Varoma, it literally loses NO moisture.
I'm so pleased you enjoyed the recipe.
Happy Cooking

Hi Michelle
Thank you for you lovely comment, I’m so pleased you enjoyed the recipe. Each oven is a little different. I use 200 for a conventional bake. Fan forced is about 10degrees cooler. In all honesty I just look and when they look done I take them out 🤣🤣
I hope that helps xxx

Love this dinner recipe. The silverside is tender and the sauce adds a really nice taste. Has anyone frozen the sauce for reheating?Reply

This one is the only recipe I use for my silverside, so yummy, only thing is I serve it with white sauce. Thanks JulieReply
Lilly says
Hi, can extra silverside be stored in the freezer once cooked?
Reply
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Lilly
Yes, the extra silverside can be sliced and stored in zip lock bags with the air removed. It’s a great way to always have sandwich meat on hand.

By internal steamer do you mean in the varoma or in the thermo bowl? In the middle of cooking right now!

Hi, sorry I have just seen your message. The internal steam basket is the round one which fits inside the TM bowl.

No seasoning fo the meat?
Only the sauce.
I'll brine it. What say you?
GreetingsReply
Julie Carlyle says
Corned meat is already brined, there is no need to brine it. Xx

Phoebe says
If I only wanted to cook one half this size would it be possible would I half the cooking time ?
Reply
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Pheobe
Yes you can do a smaller piece of meat but don't reduce the cooking time by half. Just take about 15 minutes off the total time.Reply
Faye Wolfenden says
This is probably the 4th time I have cooked corn meat using this method.I will never cook it any other way ever again,just so easy and the end result is amazing.

Hi, I’m cooking one to be used for cold meat only (no sauce) should I add anything to the water to flavour the meat?
Reply
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Amanda
Thanks for messaging.
The meat is cooked in the Varoma and is only steamed. So it would be a waste to add any flavours to the water if you arent making a sauce.

This recipe was a winner! The meat was tender, sauce delicious. I put potatoes in the last 45 mins as suggested and as sauce was cooking made old fashioned mash with the cooked spuds. Definitely a go to meal.Reply

I have a piece of corn meat that is only 1180g .. how long do I cook for ??
Reply
Julie Carlyle says
Hi Amanda
It will still take most of the cook time. Just check it 20minutes before the end. If you can tear the meat in half with a fork it's done ????????Reply
