    Broccoli Potato Puree

    Broccoli is a wonderful vegetable that contains a high amount of vitamin C and loads of fiber. Fiber-rich foods are known to cure constipation in babies. Broccoli should be introduced in a baby's diet at the age of 8-10 months as it may cause gas & difficult to digest for young infants. The same applies to the potato as well.

    Introduce broccoli & potato to your baby as individual purees. Once her tummy is adjusted to those purees, try this combination puree with broccoli and potato. Let's check how to make this healthy broccoli potato puree for babies.

    Ingredients

    • Broccoli - 10 florets
    • Potato - 1 small sized
    • Water - as needed

    Instructions

    Preparation

    • Sterilize the bowls and spoons used for feeding your baby in a vessel with hot water for five minutes and keep it immersed in the same container until use.

    Method

    • Wash broccoli and potato in running water well. Take the florets from broccoli and keep it immersed in hot water for 5 minutes to remove the worms, if any. In the meantime, peel the skin off from the potato with a peeler. Then chop them into equal size small cubes. Steam the broccoli florets & potato pieces in a steamer for 15 minutes. You can steam it with Idli steamer plate by adding a cup of water or pressure cook it with a cup of water for two whistles. For both steaming and blending, I use
    • Philips Avent Combined Steamer and Blender
    • Once the broccoli & potato are steamed, it will be soft and transparent. Now blend it with little water to a smooth paste in a blender.

    Notes :

    • Broccoli & potato should be included in the baby's diet only after eight months as they might cause gas in babies.
    • When selecting potatoes, choose the ones with less brown or soft spots.
    • You can replace potatoes with sweet potatoes & broccoli with cauliflower to make this puree.
    • You can mash it with a fork instead of blending the broccoli and potato.
    • Generally, broccoli/potato doesn't cause any allergies, but check for symptoms and stop feeding your baby if you find any.
    • Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
    • Steaming is a healthy option for baby food than pressure cooking. So I prefer steaming using an Idli pot or steamer.
