A nutritious, iron rich first food for babies with an irresistible texture! Coconut milk, butternut squash and lentils combine to make a silky sweet puree which can be eaten plain or given different flavor boosts to suit your family's tastes. This can also be watered down to make a delicious lentil soup for babies!
Add the lentils, cloves, butternut squash and water to a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then simmer until the lentils and squash are cooked (about 15 minutes). Add more water if it looks like it's drying out too soon.
Remove the cloves.
Add the coconut milk and mix until incorporated.
Puree the mixture using a hand blender, food processor or baby food maker.
