Two healthy and tasty soup recipes for toddlers.

or pan, use medium heat to stir fry the tomato pieces until tomato juice comes out3. Add some hot water into the wok, wait till the water starts to boil, put potato pieces and beef inside
4. Wait until everything is cooked, add salt and chives/spring onion
5. Enjoy!
2. Broccoli and meatball soup
This is a delicious soup that also can be enjoyed as a family. Please mind that if you are cooking this dish as part of a meal for the whole family, you will need to use more of each ingredient. Broccoli is a very healthy vegetable, not only it is very rich in Vitamin C and K, it is also well known for its anti-cancer properties. Minced pork/beef is rich in protein, Vitamin B6 and B12. Combined with some rice, it is a nice meal with vegetable, meat and carbohydrates.
age: above 12 months
Ingredients:
- minced pork or beef or a mixture of the two 1.5-2 ounces / 50g
- broccoli 3.5 ounces / 100g
- Vegetable Soup Base
(either Cubes
or tubs is ok)
- Corn Starch
- Soy Sauce
How to cook:
1. Mix the meat with a teaspoon corn starch, a teaspoon of soy sauce and one to two table spoon of water
2. Cut the broccoli into small pieces as shown in the picture. If your child is very picky and does not eat the flower part, you can also use the stem of the broccoli, just cut the skin away and cook it with the flower part
3. Put a cube of soup stock in the water (if you are using tube, then half of a port is enough) and boil the water
4. When the water starts to boil and the soup base has melted completely, use a teaspoon to shape the meat into small balls and put the balls in the water
5. Cook the meat balls for 2-3 minutes in the boiling soup, then put the broccoli inside, continue to cook until everything is cooked and the broccoli is in a texture that you like
