Golden Soup Millet Porridge

Golden Soup Millet Porridge

1. 1. Prepare ingredients: 40g millet, 100g pumpkin, 30g broccoli.

PS: Bao Ma can also choose other green leafy vegetables to replace broccoli, such as rape, milk cabbage, etc. However, do not add too much vegetables, otherwise it will affect the taste of millet porridge.

2. 2. Wash the millet thoroughly, and then soak it in water for 1 hour in advance.

PS: When washing millet, you must pay special attention. Do not wash too many times, otherwise it will damage the nutrients in the millet. Generally, it is enough to wash once. Adding water to soak in advance can reduce the time to cook the porridge and make the porridge thicker.

3. 3. Remove the flesh, peel and cut the pumpkin into small pieces.

PS: Pumpkin is also an easy-digestible food for stomach nourishment. It is rich in starch and dietary fiber. The pumpkin polysaccharide has the effect of enhancing immunity. Add it to millet porridge to double the nutrition.

4. 4. Then put the pumpkin in a steamer and steam it.

PS: I steamed it for about 15 minutes. If Mommy doesn't know the time, she can use chopsticks to insert it. If it is easy to penetrate, it proves that the pumpkin is steamed.

5. 5. After the pumpkin is steamed, take it out and press it into a puree with a spoon

6. 6. After the water has boiled, add the broccoli and blanch for about 30 seconds.

PS: I generally blanch the vegetables to remove the nitrite and pesticides remaining on the surface of the vegetables.

7. 7. Then cut the blanched broccoli into pieces and add it to the millet porridge later.

8. 8. Set up another pot, wait for the water to boil, and pour the millet into the pot.

PS: It is not easy to boil millet in boiling water, and it saves time than boiling in cold water.

9. 9. Bring to a boil on high heat, then simmer for 10 minutes on low heat.

PS: When cooking millet porridge, it is easy to splash, so be sure to use a low fire and put a wooden spoon in the pot to prevent it from splashing~

10. 10. After the millet is simmered for 10 minutes, pour in the broccoli and mix well.

11. 11. Filter the pumpkin puree into the millet porridge with a sieve.

PS: Use a sieve to filter the pumpkin puree, which will make the porridge taste more delicate and sticky~ Because it is for babies who have just added supplementary food, this step is more delicate.

12. 12. Then continue to cook for about 10 minutes.

PS: Broccoli cut into pieces is easier to cook, so when the millet is boiled for about 10 minutes, you can add the broccoli, and then continue to cook for another 10 minutes. In the last few minutes, be sure to use a spoon to stir constantly, because the water is easy to stick to the pot after the water is gradually dried.

13. 12. Then continue to cook for about 10 minutes.

15. 15. The boiled pumpkin and millet porridge is ready, and it can be served to the baby after drying it warmly. The amount we make is only the display amount, not the amount of the baby's meal. The specific amount to eat depends on the baby's appetite Whichever, the baby decides how much to eat

Tips:

After washing the millet, it is best to soak it in clean water for 1 hour to reduce the time for cooking the porridge and make the porridge more viscous.
When cooking millet porridge, boil the water first, and then put the millet in, so that the millet is relatively difficult to stick to the bottom.
When cooking millet porridge, the ratio of water to millet is about 10:1, but if you add other ingredients, you need to increase the ratio of water appropriately. I used 40g of millet and added about 500ml of water.
