Shrimp, lettuce and vegetable balls

Shrimp, lettuce and vegetable balls

Overview

The ingredients for this complementary food are very simple, only shrimps and vegetables, with a few drops of lemon juice added to remove the fishy smell, but the resulting meatballs are extremely soft and tender. Suitable for babies aged 9 months and above who can eat chopped green leafy vegetables. This dish seems simple. If the green leafy vegetables and shrimps are pureed together, and the green leafy vegetables are extracted into water, the meatballs will definitely not be so crisp without adding flour. With the addition of flour, they will be firm but not so tender. Therefore, chop the green leafy vegetables into small pieces instead of pureeing them. When steaming, the vegetables will release their juice, and the juice will be wrapped in the shrimp balls, making the shrimps tender and full of flavor. This is the result of Youma’s attempts to chop and puree the vegetables, and to make the meatballs with or without flour. Babies can eat 4 or 5 of these meatballs in one sitting.
