Introducing a baby-friendly stir-fry that’s packed with flavor, nutrition, and easy-to-eat ingredients—perfect for little ones learning to explore new tastes!
Ingredients:
- 2 blocks of extra firm tofu
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos for a milder flavour)
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
Stir fry millet noodles
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 inch of grated ginger (optional or reduce for milder taste)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Veggies of your choice (like carrots, peas, and zucchini, finely chopped)
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
- 2 tbsp rice wine vinegar (or apple cider vinegar for a milder taste)
- 1 tsp honey or maple syrup (for a touch of sweetness)
- Finely chopped green onions (optional and in small amounts)
- Toasted sesame seeds (avoid large amounts for younger babies)
- Squeeze of lime juice (optional)
Instructions:
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess water, then cut into small cubes. Toss the tofu in low-sodium soy sauce and coat lightly with cornstarch. Bake or pan-fry the tofu until golden and crispy. Set aside. Prepare the millet noodles according to package instructions. Set aside. In a pan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions, ginger, and garlic until soft and fragrant. Add the chopped veggies and cook until tender. Pour in the baby-friendly stir-fry sauce and let it simmer for a few minutes. Add the cooked millet noodles and tofu to the pan, tossing everything together until well coated. Serve the stir-fry with a sprinkle of finely chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds on top. Add a squeeze of lime juice for a fresh touch, if desired.
Note:
1. Make sure all ingredients are finely chopped and soft enough for your baby to eat safely.
2. For younger babies, you may want to blend or mash the veggies into a smoother consistency.
