if under 12 months I really wouldn't, as the tomato ketchup will be quite salty. why not just put some tomato puree in instead?

Or take her serving out before you put the sauce in for you. I wouldn't give it under 12 months either.

Use tomato puree instead ?

HRHQueenOfQuelNoel · 27/01/2006 17:53

I would - but then I'm not one for following the rules and guidelines on these things.

So I'd go with what the others say

i cant see the problem to be honest.... if one dollop in a huge stir fry is something to worry about - how did Jess end up ok?

I dont think that the portion dd will end up eating will make too much difference. Minority obviously

think it'll be ok... one dollop in the entire stir fry isn't much at all

How old is she?

If she's over 9 months, and if it's just a tiny bit, it's probably ok. (I'm thinking a tablespoon or two.) Tomato puree probably better, for her and you.

Get the low salt low sugar ketchup from sainsbury's. Or try Passata (sieved tomatoes).
