Sous Vide is super easy once you get the idea behind slow low cooking. Especially in the Thermomix. You do not need the TM6, perfect in all of them.

Step preview

Place rice into the simmering basket
Rinse it with water straight into the Thermomix bowl (over the top of the rice)
Steam for 30 min, 100°C, speed 3
Tip into a large bowl and drizzle with plenty of EVOO while you allow it to cool
Move onto cooking the fish
Place the fish fillets into a stasher bag or vacuum sealed bag with EVOO, salt, lemon juice and basil
Remove as much air as possible and refrigerate for up to 48 hours
Add water to the Thermomix bowl
Place the stasher bag with the fish in it, into the simmering basket
You may need to push it down, but try and keep the fish shape intact as much as possible
Cook for 40 min, 60°C, speed 2
Check that the fish is done by opening up the bag and flaking a piece of fish with a fork
If it is soft and breaks easily you are ready
Otherwise, add more cooking time in 5 minute increments
Set aside (still in the bag) while you prepare the salad
Toss the rice with all remaining ingredients and season to taste
Add cracked pepper if you wish
Serve the salad on individual plates, topped with a piece of fish, then using a microplane, zest the lemon and finely grate plenty of parmesan on top of the salad and the fish
Serve immediately
