INGREDIENTS

1 small zucchini (courgette)

1 small potato

1 handful of spinach leaves

2-3 teaspoons of water (or fresh breast milk or formula milk)

METHOD

1. Wash the zucchini, remove the ends and cut the rest into chunks.

2. Peel and dice the potato.

3. Wash the spinach well, trim off any tough stalks, and chop the spinach finely.

4. Put 1-2 cups of water into a small/medium-sized saucepan and bring to the boil over medium heat.

5. Add the potato, reduce heat to medium/low and simmer for about 10 minutes, until potato is soft (check that the water does not boil away).

6. Turn off the heat and add the zucchini and spinach to the pan, then cover with a lid and leave for a few minutes until all the vegetables are soft.

7. Drain off the water and use a stick blender to make a smooth puree – adding water, breast milk or formula as needed to get the right consistency.
