How to make the porridge
Start by thoroughly washing 50 grams of peas (either fresh or frozen) and 50 grams of fresh spinach. The peas and spinach are a healthy combination of green vegetables that provide your baby with important nutrients.
Now you can steam both ingredients in a pan. Steaming ensures that the vegetables become soft and easy to digest while retaining most of their nutrients.
As soon as the peas and spinach are soft enough, you can puree them into a fine mash. Use a hand blender or mixer to ensure that the porridge has a smooth and velvety consistency.
Now that your pea and spinach porridge is ready, you can warm it up in the LIINI porridge warmer. This practical warmer ensures that the porridge is at the ideal temperature for your baby without you having to constantly monitor the microwave.
This porridge combines the delicate flavors of peas and spinach and offers a healthy and delicious meal for your baby. Bon appétit!
