Notes

You can use breast milk substitute instead of vegetable water. Then the food gets a higher energy content, and the baby gets added iron through the breast milk substitute.
You can use other vegetables like cauliflower and Brussels sprouts. You can add a few drops of lemon juice to the bog, it will make it more fresh in taste. You can serve the root vegetables cut into small cubes and turned into fat when the child has become good at chewing. At the root humidifier, the cooking time is a little shorter.
