  • DifficultyEasy
  • Allergen InformationContains: Fish

Ingredients

  • 40g raw boneless white fish fillet (cod or haddock), skin removed
  • 20g dry whole millet, rinsed
  • 1/2 cup cauliflower florets, washed and trimmed
  • 1 tsp olive oil (optional)
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) safe water to start, plus extra as needed

Preparation

  1. Rinse the dry whole millet according to the package. Simmer with enough safe water, adding liquid and cooking time as needed until every grain becomes soft and mashable.

  2. Remove woody cauliflower stems and steam florets until the thickest part completely crushes with a fork.

  3. Check the raw boneless fish fillet carefully for bones. Steam or poach until the thickest part reaches 63°C (145°F) when measurable; flake finely and check once more for bones.

  4. Mash or blend tender millet and cauliflower with carefully deboned fully cooked fish and extra safe liquid until moist, cohesive and spoonable.

  5. Stir in optional olive oil, check for firm grains or dry fish pieces and cool to feeding temperature.

Serving by Age
