Once your baby starts eating solid food, a whole new world opens up for them. Whether you're going the traditional spoon-feeding route or trying baby-led weaning, you're likely starving for ideas for what to feed your baby. Making your own baby food can seem daunting, but with a little planning, it's super easy – and it can be cheaper than buying prepared baby food.

From thin purees to full finger-food meals, here are some baby food recipes for every stage of your solid feeding journey.

Baby food recipes for 6 to 8 months

Babies are typically ready to start eating solid foods around 6 months. Signs that they're ready include having good head control, being able to sit up, and showing an interest in food. If your baby watches you while you eat, opens their mouth when you offer them a spoonful of food, or even tries to grab food off your plate, those are good indicators that they're ready.

You can start your baby off with just about any pureed, single-ingredient food – like bananas, berries, or many of the foods listed below. 

The exceptions are the top allergenic foods, such as fish, wheat, eggs, soy, peanuts, tree nuts, sesame, and dairy. It's best to give your baby low-allergy foods at the very beginning, like apple or chicken puree. Once you know they can handle those foods, you can start introducing potentially allergenic foods.

When introducing your baby to a common allergen, serve it for three to five days before introducing another type of food. That way, if your baby has an allergic reaction, it'll be easier to tell what caused it.

Try these baby food recipes for your 6- to 8-month-old:

  • Apple and pear sauce
  • Baby oats with prunes
  • Butternut squash puree
  • Green pea puree
  • Mango and banana puree
  • Peach or nectarine puree
  • Roasted pears
  • Sweet potato puree
  • Turkey or chicken puree
  • Whipped cauliflower
  • Yogurt and berry swirl
  • Zucchini puree

Baby food recipes for 9 to 12 months

By the time your baby is about 9 months old, they're ready for some more complex dishes – often, you'll find yourself feeding them whatever you and the rest of your family are eating.

While you're expanding your baby's eating horizons, remember they still don't have that many teeth and can't chew hard or crunchy produce like raw carrots – and be on the lookout for choking hazards, like whole grapes and popcorn. But there are still plenty of other options for babies at this age: flaky salmon, ground beef, roasted vegetables, baked potatoes, pasta dishes… the list goes on.

If your baby doesn't like new textures, don't worry. The key at any age is to offer your baby a variety of foods and to keep trying. Even if they don't like the food at first, keep offering it to them – sometimes, you may have to offer your baby a food up to 20 times before they'll accept it.

By this age, your baby is also typically ready to start trying out finger foods, like O-shaped toasted oat cereal, banana slices, or well-cooked pasta cut into bite-size pieces, about a ¼ of an inch in size. Several of the recipes below, like guacamole, hummus, and whipped cauliflower, make perfect dips to pair with finger foods so your baby can start learning to eat independently. It'll be messy, of course, but it's a great time for them to practice their hand-eye coordination and skills with their newfound pincer grasp.

If you're ready for some more food adventures with your baby, try adding spices to their meals. While it isn't recommended to give babies added salt or sugar in their diet until they're at least 2 years old, fresh herbs and other spices are fair game (and a little added salt is okay). Try adding cinnamon to their oatmeal or rosemary to their ground beef.

And if you really want to experiment with new flavors, your baby may even enjoy a bit of spicy food – but avoid foods with a lot of added sugar, salt, or processing. (If you're a fan of spicy food yourself and ate it while breastfeeding, your baby might even have some built-in tolerance for spice.)

Try these recipes for your 9- to 12-month-old:

  • Asparagus risotto
  • Baby guacamole
  • Barley and mushroom mash
  • Broccoli and cauliflower cheese
  • Chicken curry with green beans and zucchini
  • Coconut milk rice pudding with blueberry compote
  • Homemade hummus
  • Lentil and spinach stew
  • Pasta with spinach and ricotta
  • Oatmeal with apples 
  • Quinoa, black beans, and corn
  • Rice with peas, carrots, and egg
  • Root veggie mash
  • Salmon, asparagus, and peas
  • Shepherd's pie
  • Smashed chickpea and butternut squash chili
  • Tomato and avocado scramble
  • Tropical fruit salad

    Australian cuisine: recipes of national dishes

    • October 8, 2018
    • Main courses
    • Alexander Nedashkovsky

    Each country can boast of its national dishes, the recipes of which have evolved over the centuries. What can you say about Australian cuisine? Many people believe that Australian food is a mix of English, Mediterranean and other cuisines. Is it really?

    Development History

    Culinary experts note that Australian cuisine has been influenced by Italian, Chinese and English. In the most amazing way, it combines eastern and western traditions, as well as unusual gastronomic preferences of the natives.

    It is worth noting that the culinary traditions of the entire continent are connected with the history of the country's development. The first inhabitants of Australia were the Aborigines. There is not much information left about their taste preferences. In the future, immigrants from various countries began to gather on the coast of the mainland, who, in the process of communication, began to exchange recipes for their favorite dishes.

    According to experts, at the end of the twentieth century began the period of maximum flowering of Australian cuisine. It was during this period that restaurants specializing in traditional dishes of the country began to appear in different parts of the continent. Thanks to a large selection of Australian national dishes and affordable prices, the establishments quickly won universal love.

    But it is worth noting that experts have completely different attitudes towards the phenomenon of Australian cuisine. Some believe that the national cuisine of the country has developed on the basis of the best dishes from different countries of the world, and in the future its development will follow the intended path. Other connoisseurs generally deny the existence of Australian cuisine. They justify their opinion by the fact that French, Chinese, British, German and other dishes simultaneously exist in the country. Of course, they interact with each other. On the basis of existing traditions, completely new food is emerging, based on long-known recipes. Therefore, it is not necessary to talk about independent Australian national cuisine.

    It is difficult to say which of the specialists is right. And yet, the article will present the main features of local cuisine.

    Gastronomic tastes of local residents

    Analyzing the features of dishes, it is worth highlighting the main features of the local cuisine:

    1. Australians love meat. It would seem that this is surprising? Who doesn't love meat? However, we are not talking about the varieties familiar to us - beef, lamb, pork, turkey or chicken. In Australia, they eat kangaroos, opossums, emus and crocodiles. Ostrich meat is not even a delicacy. This is the most common food for the locals.
    2. Fruits and vegetables are the basis of the Australian diet. The favorable climate of the continent contributes to the cultivation of a huge number of gifts of nature. In Australia, there are not only cucumbers, tomatoes and potatoes, but also exotic fruits - lime, papaya, avocado, desert peach, Tasmanian pears and much more. The entire range is simply uncountable.
    3. The Australian continent is located on the border of two oceans, there are several seas. That is why there is a lot of seafood in the country. In the diet of the population, they are present in large quantities. All kinds of oysters, scallops, shrimps, crabs, lobsters and other seafood are sold here. And shark meat is generally a familiar product for Australians.
    4. Dairy products are equally popular here - cheeses, yoghurts, milk. But the usual cottage cheese is not here.

    It is worth remembering the food of local aborigines, which seems to our tourists something absolutely fantastic. Each state of the vast country has its own signature dish. So, for example, in Sydney they cook the most delicious oysters. And in Tasmania you can taste the best salmon.

    Meat

    The most popular meat in Australia is beef. It is prepared everywhere. But there are no less fans of kanguryatina in the country. Such meat is stewed, fried, used as a filling for dumplings and pies. And the kangaroo tail is considered the most delicious delicacy.

    Australians eat ostrich meat, turkey, chicken and pork. The most common and popular dish on the continent is Melbourne chicken. Such food is nothing more than chicken breasts and legs fried in olive oil and then stewed in white wine and tomato juice.

    The most common meat in Australia is barbecued. Such equipment is available not only in every family, but also installed in every park and beach.

    Australians also actively use crocodile meat. For us it seems something incredible. But for locals, ordering a crocodile meat steak is a common thing. How do Australians prepare this dish? Reptile meat is prepared in the same way as chicken meat; these two types of products are very similar in taste. The pulp is cut and stewed with spices, adding wine, or boiled. Roasts and broths are made from crocodile. Its meat is white and tender, the locals love it very much because it is low in calories.

    Meat pie: ingredients

    What do they eat in Australia? As we already mentioned, the locals love meat dishes. One of the most popular dishes is the Australian meat pie.

    Filling ingredients:

    1. Beef fillet - 350 g.
    2. Garlic, onion.
    3. Worcestershire sauce.
    4. Mixture of peppers.
    5. Flour.
    6. Thyme.
    7. Mushrooms - 250 g.
    8. Vegetable oil.
    9. Puff pastry.

    For the dough (shortbread):

    1. 1.5 cups flour.
    2. Ice water.
    3. Salt.
    4. Drain oil – 130 g.

    Meat Pie Recipe

    Meat pies in Australia are made using two types of dough. The filling is usually a mixture of beef stew with mushrooms. Shortcrust pastry can be prepared independently, and puff pastry is easier to buy. Australians prepare small portioned pies or decent-sized pastries. Serve the dish along with soup-puree.

    Beef meat is cut into pieces and rolled in pepper and flour, a little salt is added. Breaded slices are fried in vegetable oil. After the meat acquires a golden hue, chopped onion, thyme leaves, garlic, Worcester sauce, a little broth are added to it. Products are stewed until cooked.

    Butter (room temperature) is softened with a fork and mixed with salt and flour. The mass is kneaded and ice water is added. Knead the dough with your hands until elastic, then put it in the refrigerator.

    After the filling has cooled down, you can start forming the pie. The dough is divided into two parts. Each must be rolled into a thin layer. The dimensions of the blanks should match your baking molds. A thin layer is laid out on the bottom, forming the sides. Next lay out the filling. Cover the top of the pie with a puff pastry lid. The top of the product, if desired, can be greased with an egg and sprinkled with sesame seeds. Next, the cake is sent to the oven. On average, baking takes 20 minutes.

    Summer Salad: Ingredients

    Since fruits and vegetables are available all year round on the Green Continent, salads occupy a fairly large place in the menu of the local population. There is an incredible number of such dishes. Only one example of such a summer salad will be given in the article.

    Ingredients:

    1. Tomatoes - 5 pcs.
    2. Cucumbers - 3 pcs.
    3. Mayonnaise.
    4. Two varieties of lettuce.
    5. Celery.
    6. Ham - 8 slices.
    7. Two apples.
    8. Orange fresh.

    How to prepare a salad?

    Celery, cucumbers and apples must be diced. Roll the ham slices into small rolls. Mix celery, apples and cucumbers in a bowl and season with orange juice. We spread the mass on a flat dish, and around it we cover it with lettuce leaves, slices of tomatoes and ham rolls. Top the salad with plenty of mayonnaise.

    Beef soup

    How to cook Australian soup? First courses are prepared with meat and seafood.

    Ingredients:

    1. Beef - 450g
    2. Onion.
    3. Four potatoes.
    4. Tomato paste.
    5. Carrot.
    6. Garlic.
    7. Cumin.
    8. Thyme.
    9. Two celery stalks.
    10. Bay leaf.
    11. Sour cream.
    12. Salt.

    Cut the meat into small pieces and set to boil on the fire. We cut the onion into half rings, the garlic and carrots into circles, and the celery and potatoes into cubes. After boiling the broth, it is necessary to remove the foam and add carrots and onions. Cooking soup for five minutes. Then add thyme, bay leaf, tomato paste and cook the broth for about an hour (until the meat becomes soft). Add celery and potatoes 10 minutes before done. Serving the soup on the table, you can add sour cream.

    Australian-style hamburger: ingredients

    Despite the abundance of seafood, fruits and vegetables, the locals do not neglect fast food. To prepare an Australian burger you will need:

    1. Minced beef - 450 g.
    2. Onion - 0.3 kg.
    3. Eggs - 5 pcs.
    4. Buns - 4 pcs.
    5. Tomatoes - 3 pcs.
    6. Cheese - 200g
    7. Bacon - 200g
    8. Bunch of lettuce.
    9. Canned pineapples.

    Recipe for burgers

    Mix minced meat, egg, pepper, two tablespoons of ketchup, salt in a deep bowl. We knead the mass well with our hands and send it to the refrigerator for 30 minutes. After we divide the workpiece into equal parts and form a flat cutlet from each. Fry them in vegetable oil. During cooking, put a slice of cheese on one side of the cutlet, after which we cover the saucepan with a lid. The cheese will melt in just a couple of minutes.

    Next we need a grill pan. Toast the halves of the burger buns on a dry surface. Cook the eggs in a clean skillet. Fry them until the yolk seizes. Using the mold, cut out circles of scrambled eggs.

    Next, fry the bacon in a pan. Once cooked, the fat can be used to fry onions and pineapple rings. All components are ready, so you can start assembling the burger. Place a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, a cutlet, onion and bacon on a half of a roll, as well as a slice of pineapple and scrambled eggs. Lubricate the second part of the bun with ketchup. Burger is ready.

    Desserts

    Some tastes of Australians may seem strange to us. So, for example, local children love "elven bread". What do you think it is? Delicacy is served at all children's events. According to local residents, elves eat the most ordinary bread and butter, decorated with colored sugar beads. For Europeans, such a dessert can hardly be called a delicacy.

    The real culinary symbol of Australia is the lamington cake. The dessert got its name from Baron Lamington, who was the governor of one of the states of the country. Legend has it that he did not approve of the cake. But to this day, the housewives prepare a dessert for children. Lamington is a simple biscuit cake that has a layer of lemon jam on the inside. Top delicacy is decorated with chocolate icing and coconut flakes.

    Frog cakes are equally popular in Australia. The name of the dessert is associated with the shape of the pastry, which resembles the head of a frog. Biscuit cupcakes with cream are covered with colored icing.

    The most famous cake on the continent is a confection with the beautiful name "Pavlova". The dessert got its name from the name of the ballerina Anna Pavlova, who visited the country on tour at the beginning of the last century. The cake is made from light meringue with whipped cream, passion fruit and strawberries.

    DESCRIPTION

    Dear friends, today I come to you with Australian cuisine. She really likes me. I will say right away that preparing a dessert is simple and does not require much trouble. This makes it very tasty and tender. No wonder this dessert is one of the most popular in Australia. What is Leamington? These are biscuit cakes (they turn out LIGHT, POROUS AND AIRY!) covered on all sides with liquid chocolate and coconut flakes. You can make them with or without filling (whipped cream, strawberry jam, etc.). Optionally, you can soak in syrup. This dessert has an insanely interesting story that simply cannot be ignored! According to one version, the dessert was named after Lord Leamington, Governor of the Australian state of Queensland in 1895-1901 According to another version, the dessert is named after the city of Leamington (South Lancashire, Scotland). Even those who are inclined towards the first version have a lot of disputes, claims and assumptions about where, how and when the Leamington appeared. One of the assumptions is (according to the Weekland newspaper): “The recipe appeared thanks to the ingenuity of the cook, who urgently needed to feed the host's guests. Isn't that how a part of culinary masterpieces is born??? The chef used everything that was at hand, as there was no time to bake a new cake.” There is another assumption: “The cook accidentally dropped the biscuit into chocolate, and over time he decided that it would be tastier with coconut flakes.” The first Leamington recipe appeared on January 1902 years, but the author was not specified. Ironically, Leamington is said to have hated the cakes named after him and said "those damn chocolate covered fluffy biscuits"! True or not, no one can say for sure. But the fact that this is a traditional delicious dessert that both adults and children like is for sure! Dessert has been very popular for decades in the USA, Ohio, Queenland. There they are usually called "coconut bars". Old Los Angeles bakeries still make this dessert. By the way, since 2006, July 21 has been declared Leamington Day. I tried to find the most optimal, close to the original recipe. Enjoy, Darlings! :)

    So, our cake Victoria Spong . Beat softened butter with sugar and vanilla sugar until white. We introduce milk.


    Separately beat the eggs with a pinch of salt at the maximum mixer speed. Not less than 5-7 minutes!


    Mix flour with baking powder. Now, alternately, we introduce eggs with flour into the butter whipped with sugar.


    Mix the dough well. Bake at 180 degrees until done. Do not open the oven for the first 15 minutes! Let's cool down. Cut into cubes or whatever you like. Ideally, they are cut into cubes measuring 16 by 16 cm. But this is not important!


    Now for our chocolate sauce topping. Melt the chocolate in a water bath. Add cream and let cool.


    Now carefully fill our cakes with chocolate on all sides, if you have it, it is better to do it on a wire rack. But I managed without it. She laid the cakes on parchment paper. It is better to fill it with chocolate, in this way you will protect your chocolate icing from crumbs. And sprinkle with coconut flakes on all sides.
