Red lentil and carrot purée is a salt-free baby food made by slowly simmering red lentils with carrot until perfectly smooth. The lentils' natural iron content settles into a gentle balance with the carrot's sweetness. The long cooking time is what gets the lentils to that skin-free, velvety texture.
Bring the red lentils to the boil with the water in a pot, skim off the foam and continue simmering over low heat.
Add the carrot and potato and continue cooking until both the vegetables and lentils are completely soft.
Blend the mixture, stir in the olive oil, and add a little of the cooking water until the smoothness suits your baby's age.
Divide the smooth purée into single-portion containers ready to serve.
Do not add salt or spices for your baby; kidneys at this age can't handle excess salt. You can freeze the purée in ice-cube trays and use it within a month.
Swapping the carrot for pumpkin when in season gives the purée a sweeter taste and a deeper orange colour.
