How to make a trio of root vegetables;

  1. Steam the root vegetables for about 20 minutes or until tender.
  2. Blend the vegetables to a puree adding a little of the boiled water at the bottom of the steamer (about 75ml) or some of your baby’s usual milk to make a good consistency for your baby.
  3. Steaming is the best way to preserve nutrients but if you don’t have a steamer,
  4. put the vegetables into a saucepan and just cover with boiling water. 
  5. Cover the pan with a lid and cook over a medium heat until tender (about 20 minutes).
