DS is 12 months. He's "so over" purees and mash, spitting them out. He eats toast, bananas and chopped fruit and cheese and things.

What age can I feed him what we eat? not cooking from scratch I mean (he will already eat bits of a roast dinner plonked on his tray) I mean things like chicken korma (not much sauce but from a jar) stir fried rice dishes etc?

Thanks in advance

He should be fine by now, you still need to be carefull with additives and salt. They can now eat anything, although still be cautious if you are offering something completely new, meaning, look for allergic reactions etc.

I have just made a shepherds pie and a fish pie this morning for us all and my DS's are 2 yo and 7 months old. if that helps.
The 7 month old eats everything except eggs, nuts and shellfish which i haven't tried for obvious reasons.

It's vegetable and coconut korma but i'm sure you can add chicken etc and adapt the quantity to suit you.

1tsp olive oil, half a small onion chopped, 1 small carrot, peeled and diced, pinch each of ground ginger, cumin, coriander and turmeric, 2 tsp tomato puree, 1 small potato, peeled and finely diced, 1 tbsp beans such as haricot or butter beans, tinned or boiled, 2 tsp desiccated coconut, 90ml (3fl oz) water.

Heat the oil in a small pan over medium heat. Lightly fry the onion and carrot until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add the spices and tomato puree and heat for 3 minutes, stirring continuosly. Put half of the mixture in a bowl and set to one side.

Add the potato, beans, coconut and water to the pan. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.

Puree roughly or mash. Mix in the reserved vegetables, adding extra water if a thinner consistancy is preferred.

It says its a good source of iron and magnesium and will keep for 24hrs in the fridge or 4 weeks in the freezer.
