For 8-month-old babies, red lentils and spinach are cooked together and blended into a smooth purée described as rich in iron. The lentils thicken the purée, so no additional thickener is needed.
Rinse the lentils and place them in a pot. Add the water, cover, and boil over medium heat for 20 minutes.
Add the chopped spinach to the pot and cook for another 10 minutes, until the leaves are soft.
Blend the mixture until smooth. Drizzle with olive oil and stir once more.
Because spinach contains nitrates, do not give more than 1–2 servings per week to babies under 8 months old. Store the purée in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To freeze it, divide it into small containers.
