Millet & Pear

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup millet
• 1 cup water
• 1 ripe pear peeled and cored

Method

1. 01

   Rinse millet under cold water.

2. 02

   Cook millet in 1 cup of water over medium-low heat for 15–18 minutes until water is absorbed and millet is soft.

3. 03

   Peel, core, and chop the pear. Steam for 5–7 minutes or simmer in a little water until very soft.

4. 04

   Blend or mash cooked pear to a smooth puree. Stir into cooked millet and mix well. Serve warm.

How to offer

Serve warm. Pear is very gentle on babies' tummies and pairs well with the mild flavour of millet.

Storage

Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Not recommended for freezing once mixed with pear.
