  • Broccoli florets with a long stalk to grip
  1. 1Trim florets so each has a stalk "handle" for little hands.
  2. 2Steam for 8–10 min until soft enough to squash easily.
  3. 3Cool until just warm.
  4. 4Offer one floret at a time on the tray.

The floret head holds purées and sauces well for dipping later.

Always follow your paediatrician's guidance on allergens and choking-hazard textures. Cook eggs, fish and meat thoroughly and serve food just warm.
