Recipe's preparation

    Delicious, and refreshing. Mint is a wonderfully zingy experience for your baby's taste buds. My bub loved this. Lots of "Num, num, num" after each tangy spoonful.
  1. Pour 500g water into TM bowl.
  2. Place pear into simmering basket, and place in TM bowl. Steam for 12min/Varoma/ speed 1.
  3. Add courgette and steam for a further 5 min/Varoma/speed 1. Using spatula remove the simmering basket and discard the water.
  4. Place ingredients back into TM bowl along with kiwi fruit, and mint and blitz for 15 secs / Speed 4 - 8.

Tip

You can read more of my baby/toddler friendly recipes at www.littlethermiebaby.com

1. If baby is just starting out on solids, reserve some of the water at step 4. Approximately 80g and add this at step 5.

2. I recommend for all purees to not dial the speed straight up. Increase the speed slowly before reaching the desired speed. This helps to make sure everything in the bowl is pureed, otherwise it can end up splattered up the sides of your bowl.

Thermomix Model

  • Appliance TM 5 image
    Recipe is created for
    TM 5
    If you are using a Thermomix® TM6 measuring cup with your Thermomix® TM5:
    For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.
    Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

    Kriham: Hi Kriham, Yes at step 4. I've updated the recipe to make it clear when to add the kiwi fruit. Thanks for asking. Smile

    At what point do you add the kiwi fruit? With the mint?

    Wow! I gave this too my 8 month old and it turned out great. I had heaps of kiwi fruit around so I added an extra one. I think your tip about increasing speed slowly really made a difference. Thanks!
