Toddler's Simple Cod Traybake
👋 (Servings are per adult - divide by 2 if cooking for toddlers) In most of my books I’ve done a fish traybake and they’ve always gone down so well. My Prawn, Pepper and Kidney Bean Nacho Traybake and Creamy Lemony Salmon Bake have been two of my most loved recipes, so I wanted to include another one in this book! This is a really fresh and flavourful dish and is super simple. It’s also so easy to adapt for a baby as needed – just mash it all together with a few sticks of greens on the side or offer the elements as single items for your baby to feed themselves. For older toddlers, just let them explore as they need.
Method
Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200 ÌŠC/180 ÌŠC fan.
Step 2
Add the sweet potatoes and greens (asparagus) to a medium roasting tray (about 20 x 30cm) and drizzle with the oil. Give it a mix around to coat the potato, then pop in the oven for 20 minutes.
Step 3
Meanwhile, make the dressing. In a bowl, add the ginger, lemon juice and oil. Give it a good stir and leave to one side.
Step 4
Remove the tray from the oven and add the cod fillets. Sprinkle the turmeric and drizzle the zingy dressing over the cod and cook for a further 15 20 minutes. Keep an eye on the greens towards the end of the cooking time and remove any from the oven if they are starting to char. You want them to be soft and well cooked but not too brown.
Step 5
Before serving, flake up the cod and mash any veg that needs it for babies.
