Here's an interesting recipe to start the week - a tasty vegetable risotto! Suitable for babies from around 7 months, this dish is quite textured at the end of the cooking time and is ideal for babies who are able to enjoy soft lumps.

You will need

2oz Arborio (risotto) rice
1tsp butter
homemade vegetable stock
1/2 small courgette (zucchini), diced very finely
2oz finely grated carrot
1oz grated Parmesan

How to make it

Melt the butter in a frying pan (skillet) and add the risotto rice, stirring well to make sure that the butter coats the grains.
Cover the rice with the vegetable stock and stir well. Simmer, stirring constantly, until the rice has absorbed all the stock, then add some more and continue to simmer for 15 mins, adding more stock as necessary.
Add the diced courgette and finely grated carrot, stir well and cook for 5 minutes more.
Top with the Parmesan and - hey presto - dinner is served!
