Egg Yolk Mash With Orange Juice for Babies
Ingredients:
- 1 egg, at room temperature
- 2-3 tablespoons of freshly extracted orange juice
Method:
1. To start, gently place the egg in a saucepan and add enough water to cover it completely.
2. Now, set the saucepan over medium heat and wait for the water to come to a rolling boil. Once it starts boiling, let the egg cook for 5-7 minutes.
3. After reaching a rolling boil, cover the saucepan with a lid and allow the egg to sit in the hot water for about 10 minutes. This will ensure the egg cooks evenly and achieves the desired texture.
4. Once the timer is up, carefully remove the egg from the hot water and let it cool down for a few minutes. Then, gently peel off the shell, and with a knife, cut the egg into half.
5. Now, delicately remove the yolk from the egg and transfer it to another bowl or plate. Use a fork to mash the yolk until it reaches a smooth and creamy consistency.
6. Pour in the fresh orange juice and mix it well with the egg yolk until thoroughly combined.
7. Serve immediately.
