26/2/2015 Thursday : Meals for my 19mo lo

26/2/2015 Thursday FB Post

Good morning dear all...

I was expecting to meet a mummy in my office whom wanna share me the baby spinach that she bought but unfortunately I was late to work and reached office at 8.35am.

I have baked something that her lo can eat (gluten free)... I refer the recipe by other mummy but made adjustment by myself. Only 3 ingredients required.

Breakfast : Edamame (mummy not enough time to cook as cooking other food for my friend)

Lunch and Dinner : bow tie pasta with beetroot soup and cucumber meat floss egg

Teatime: Japanese sweet potato shibori and orange yogurt drinks

Japanese Sweet Potato Shibori

Ingredients

150g cooked japanese sweet potato + purple sweet potato (OR Japanese sweet potato alone)

15g unsalted butter

40g potato starch

Steps:

1) cook 2 different sweet potato (with skin on) in hot boiling water for 15-20mins

2) peel off sweet potato skin and weight them to get 100g Japanese sweet potato and 50g purple sweet potato OR just japanese sweet potato alone

3) mash the sweet potato with a fork or spoon by adding the butter together while it is still hot.

4) add in potato starch slowly and mix well till soft dough is formed.

5) use a 1-Teaspoon spoon to scoop the soft dough to have uniform size of the balls

6) place 1 ball onto a cling wrap and lift up all 4 corners then twist the ball gently to form the hand towel shape, then open the cling wrap and gently take out the shaped ball, place on a non sticky baking sheet.

7) repeat all balls until finish (can yield about 28 balls)

8) bake at preheated oven of 180'C for 25mins or till lightly golden brown.
