Method

  1. 1 Simmer the rice in 250 ml of water over low heat for 30 minutes.
  2. 2 Steam the salmon with a sprig of dill for 10 minutes. Dill takes the fishiness away without needing ginger or fish sauce.
  3. 3 Flake the fish and run your fingertips through it to be certain no pin bone is left, then mash it.
  4. 4 Steam the courgette for 8 minutes, mash it, stir everything into the porridge and give it two more minutes. Salmon carries DHA, the fat a baby's brain is being built out of right now.
