Cauliflower cheese mash
- Age: 8–10 months (New textures)

Ingredients
- 4 florets cauliflower
- 1 tbsp mild cheddar, grated
- 1 tbsp your baby's usual milk
Contains: Milk
Method
- Steam the cauliflower 10 minutes until very soft.
- Mash with the milk, then stir in the cheese while hot so it melts.
- Leave it lumpy. Cool to lukewarm.
Safety: A small amount of cheese. It is one of the saltier foods a baby will meet.

Tip: Cheese is naturally salty, so a tablespoon is the amount — flavour, not a cheese sauce.
