Ingredients

  • 1 fully hard-boiled egg, cooked and cooled in advance
  • 1/4 ripe avocado

Preparation

  1. Use a previously hard-boiled egg with the yolk and white completely firm. Cool and peel it, then chop finely; do not treat a five-minute boil as sufficient for a firm egg.

  2. Wash, halve and pit a ripe avocado. Remove skin and mash the soft flesh thoroughly with the fully cooked egg.

  3. Add a little safe water if needed until moist and spoonable, checking that no large rubbery egg-white chunks remain. Serve promptly.

Serving by Age

Finely mash the fully cooked white and yolk with soft avocado; add a little safe water if needed for a spoonable consistency. Offer on a spoon rather than treating this mash as a finger food.

9 months+

Offer a soft, gently textured mash if your baby manages lumps.
