Salmon and broccoli pasta bake
- Age: 12–18 months (Family food)
- Texture: Family meal
- Prep: 10 min
- Cook: 30 min
- Makes: 2 adults and 2 children
Ingredients
- 200 g pasta shapes
- 200 g skinless salmon, diced
- 1 broccoli, in florets
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp plain flour
- 400 ml milk
- 60 g grated cheese
Contains: Wheat, Fish, Milk
Method
- Cook the pasta; add the broccoli for the last 4 minutes.
- Make a white sauce; stir in the salmon and most of the cheese.
- Mix with the pasta, top with cheese, and bake at 200 °C for 20 minutes until the salmon is cooked through. Check your child's for bones; salt the adults'.
Safety: Bones: check by hand, not by eye, and do it twice. Cool your child's portion — the centre holds heat. Serve your child's portion first, then salt the rest for the adults.
Storage: Fridge 2 days.
Tip: Oily fish in a cheese sauce: the bake that turns a fish-refuser.
