He is a fussy feeder anyway with periodic total food rfusal for no particular reason but protein seems a taste he really doesn't like.

Well you could get it from things like chicken, eggs, pork etc.

What things will he eat atm?

Cheese is a good one, if you are happy giving dairy.

Protein also in beans.

Fish also good. Little salmon fishcakes, made soft and mushy might be nice.

Lentils hide well in a tomato sauce.
Peas also have some protein I think.

I wouldn't be too concerned at 9 months thought - think they're still getting pretty much all the protein they need from milk.
