Mandarin Breakfast

Banana, Polenta/Semolina, Egg, Baby curd (fromage blanc), Mandarin

Mandarin breakfast brightens a soft banana, egg and curd batter with fresh mandarin for a naturally sweet, vitamin-C-rich morning bite. Tender and lightly citrusy, it's a cheerful option for babies from around 8 months. Pan-cook gently until set, then cool and serve in strips for self-feeding.
