Zenn,
Dunnoe why Claire loves sesame oil leh, me and my mum discovered this on our own. Add sesame oil into anything and she just laps everything up. If you haven't tried before maybe you can try? Just one or two drops... coz now they dun want plain food so much, so try to flavour with healthier (yeah I know sesame oil not very healthy, but hor, I use organic version, healthier right? healthier right? Wakakakkakakakkakakakakkaka) flavourings, it may increase their appetite.
Now I use pepper, sesame oil, wang sui, basil leaves, garlic, ginger... occasionally one drop of soya sauce. heehee

sherl & icy, hmmm good idea. lately estelle always more keen in our food than her own. we let her tried mee hoon n she ate so last sat we tried bb version of fried mee hoon n she like it. btw what is wang sui? basil leave when cookin pasta right? when u add ginger and garlic?
icy,

Aqua,
Wakakakkakkakkakakaka... My mother bought the organic sesame oil from some organic shop or other... Expensive wor, 18.90 one bottle?!! But can use very long. This one from my confinement time. LOL.
Zenn,
Wang sui is chinese parsley... I like to add when cooking fried rice. Garlic can add to stirfry or fried rice also. Basil leaves you can add to grill fish actually, is nice. heeheehee. Think is Sugarbabe teach de.

icy, at the baby stuff section
Icy,
My mum got it from some organic shop, but dunnoe where it is. I gotta ask her... but think most organic shops should have nowadays. I saw one organic shop at Rail Mall selling organic Chinese cooking stuff just a couple of weeks ago.
Zenn,
Depends on what is available. I stirfry chicken and veggies for Claire. Sesame oil can also use in the egg tofu custard, kekekekeke. Oh, Claire loves the fried rice, but I dun do it for her very often coz not very healthy. Usually I will do salmon fried rice in a bid to make it more healthy (just bluffing myself la right. Hahahahahhahaha)

Good morning all!
Eh Char/icy,
I no culinary expert hor, my recipes all cha-pa-lang agar-agar one leh, dun expect gourmet food ok, heeheehee. My hubby begs me not to cook even though I offer to whenever my PILs not around.
tofu egg custard
1 egg yolk (to be safe. But mix in a bit of egg white is ok, I add in some to test. If kid already takes whole egg, even better, dun need to bother separating!)
1/4 or 1/3 box of tofu (I use the organic version because it's not that expensive)
Veggies diced or sliced in small pieces - I've used french beans, tomatoes, mushrooms before. Whatever you have which you think would mix well. Leafy veggies not recommended as you need to steam it, so the leafy veggies tend to turn yellow.
dash of pepper
1 to 2 drops of sesame oil
1 drop of soya sauce to taste if you want
Er... then just mix everything together, tofu I sort of mash into smaller pieces (but not mash mash as they may not like it if it is totally liquid), then steam mixture. I use the AMC pot so basically I steam until near the red point. If not I guess it is steam for about 10min?
Salmon fried rice
Rice (plain or brown both ok)
1 egg yolk (same as above)
salmon 1 piece (steam/grill then after that flake it)
Veggies - whatever is available and takes your fancy. For leafy stuff, dun fry too long. I use kailan before, good.
wang sui
chopped garlic (1/4 to 1/2 clove)
chopped shallots (1/2 to 1 clove)
a little bit of oil or butter. Try to use vegetable based oil like canola, olive or sunflower, healthier.
Brown garlic and shallots in the oil, then add in rice and beaten egg/egg yolk to coat the rice. Next add in the veggies (depending on what veggies you use - if you use stuff like carrots, you may need to add in before the rice so that it cooks more thoroughly first) and lastly the salmon and wang sui.
Disclaimer: Your rice cannot be too dry/wet. I did this with rice that was a bit too wet before - disastrous results.

zenn:
wah.. where you get the udon recipe from ? does estelle like to eat udon/ you blended the udon or cut into very small pieces?
can share the recipe?
i realise that kienan's not very adventurous with his food.. as long as it looks "suspicious", he won't want to open his mouth to eat it.

Char,
Claire happened to like the tofu egg custard and salmon fried rice.. heehee. Zenn is right, my egg custard and hers very different, mine closer to chawanmushi.
Zenn,
I think Icy is right. I think you need to add a bit of corn flour then can keep together le? Must ask my mum again. heehee.
Fried rice - I use her brown rice, coz she takes brown rice. But from young if I cook white rice for her I've always used our own white rice grains, never buy the xin mi.

sherl:
so ur egg custard is the chawanmushi type.. nice..
haha. so it's like steamed egg lah.. right?
i realise that kienan doesn't like food that's too mushy.. is it very soft and mushy once it's cooked?
and how long do you take to prepare it?
can everything be done in under half hour?
the veggies when you put in are still raw right?
zenn:
i see... so udon is cut into smaller pieces.. haha not bad wat, invent it yourself.. heh.
good job! think we all learning to cook more creatively for our babies!

Char,
Yeah yeah. Can sort of control how soft you want it, dun mash the tofu too much if you dun want it so mashy.
can also add more textured veggies if you want more textured food. Tomatoes for e.g. will make the mixture more mashy. I take prob around 10 min to prepare and another 10min or so to cook it. Yup, veggies are raw. If you using carrots you may want to cook the carrots before hand coz I dunnoe if carrots will cook fully in 10min.
Yeah yeah. Can sort of control how soft you want it, dun mash the tofu too much if you dun want it so mashy.

charm - Trisha still eating blended stuff but I'm starting to phase in more textured food.
last night tried the abc pasta with tomata base, she didn't seem to like it much but still finished it for me, so I guess she is not disliking it too much. =p
this morning, tried the egg with milk for her breakfast, I think I added too much milk and it's quite watery then creamy, but she managed to almost eat all up too.
I also tried fried rice for her and she likes it. =)
