Chill mixture in the fridge for minimum 30min. 

 Preheat your oven to 180C gas /200C fan. Heat up muffin tray until hot then as tiny bit of oil in to each hole and heat again for few minutes. Pour the butter in to the holes and bake for 30 min until Yorkshires are crisp and gold.

ANOTHER DAY,ANOTHER MEAL … CAULIFLOWER AND SWEET POTATO CURRY


ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL …

CAULIFLOWER AND SWEET POTATO CURRY:

We love curry in my house and luckily for us so does Chloe. Now that she is one year old I can make a kids version of the curry that we eat, which makes the cooking so much easier.

Hope that your baby will like it as well.


Ingredients:

– 100g chicken

– 150g cauliflower

– 1/2 onion

– 200ml tomatoes

– 200ml of coconut milk

– 2tsp of mild curry powder

– 2 sweet potatoes

– 1 tbsp of basil

– 1 tsp ginger (cut in to very small cubes)

Cooking method :

Peal and slice sweet potato; steam until soft*

Fry your onion on a little bit of olive oil for 3 minutes. Add chicken and curry powder, fry for 5 minutes. Add tomatoes and coconut milk and simmer for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile wash your cauliflower and blend it in the food processor (if your baby/child is older you can divide it in to small florets instead).

Add cauliflower in to the curry and simmer for another 10minutes. At the end add basil.

Cut sweet potatoes in small cubes and combine with the curry.

Your dinner is ready to serve!

* I like to cook potatoes separately by steaming to preserve more nutritions and because it’s so much easier to cut them in small cubes once they are cooked.

HEALTHY BUT SO YUMMY KIDS PARTY FOOD ! Yes it is possible !!! 

Kids Birthday Parties can be fun, yummy and … Heathy ! Yes they can ! There is no need to buy only junk food or to have everything with added sugar.

A few weeks ago I organised Chloe’s 1st birthday party. I wanted a sugar free party, why? Because most of Chloe’s guests were 1 year old or under and because I haven’t given Chloe sugar before. I have gathered lots of different ideas about kids party food from Pinterest and I have  adapted some sugary recipes so that they are sugar free.

This is what I have prepared for the party


ICE CREAM CONES 

Ice Cream Cones dipped in blended blueberry and coconut.  You can make so many different versions of it, depending on the age of the kids.

– chocolate and nuts

– chocolate and coconut

– blueberry and cornflakes

– melted marshmallows

ICE CREAM CONES WITH FRUITS

Stuff ice cream cones with any fruits you like. It’s sweet, healthy and it looks great.

SWEETCORN AND PEAS 

All kids love those ! Put them in to cute little cupcake cases to serve.

KIWI FLOWERS

 Another fun way to serve fruits. Use a small cookie, flower cutter to use around the kiwi. Top the kiwi with a raspberry and add a leaf of mint to finish it of.

STRAWBERRIES 
Strawberry is another great replacement to sweets/cookies. Because of its sweetness and vibrant colour kids (most of the kids) love them.

Dip strawberries in a soft cream and … coconut for a super healthy snack or in dark chocolate and then coconut if your kids are already eating chocolate.

You can also cut strawberry in half and put little dots of soft cream/ chocolate on top to make little ladybirds.

 

HEART AND STAR SHAPED SANDWICHES 

I know that this is a lot of work but I can do once a year for a special occasion. Just make your sandwiches and flatten them,  use biscuit cutter of a desired shape to cut them. Just remember that the sandwich needs to be very simple : soft cheese, cheese or ham are ideal.Screen Shot 2015-11-24 at 20.46.23

MAGIC WAND

Kids love blueberries so get some of them on a toothpick, topped with a star cut out of watermelon and you have a magic wand ready. I have used bought toothpicks with gold stars on top of it.
