Many people have eaten prawns. It cannot be denied that the nutritional value of prawns is very high. Many babies need to start adding complementary foods when they reach a certain age. At this time, the choice of complementary foods is very important. Babies can also eat shrimp, but when cooking shrimp for your baby, you must pay attention to the method and choose fresh shrimp. So how can you prepare prawns for babies?

1. Shrimp minced steamed eggs

Two shrimps (18 heads per pound) and one egg yolk. Take out the shrimp threads, remove the belly of the shrimp heads, and add a small amount of water. Cook for five minutes, take it out, peel it, then roll it with a pressure, and then chop it with a knife. After the egg yolk is opened, wait for the water in which the shrimp is cooked to cool down slightly, add the shrimp mince and mix well, add a little salt, vegetable oil, and put it in the pot Heat the water, add the eggs, stir for a few times and then cover, then steam over low heat for about seven minutes.

2. Fresh shrimp meat paste

50 grams of fresh shrimp meat (either river shrimp or sea shrimp), 1 gram of sesame oil, and appropriate amount of refined salt. Wash the shrimp meat, put it into a bowl, add a little water, and steam it until cooked. Add appropriate amount of refined salt, sesame oil, stir well and serve.

3. Nutrition

When buying prawns, you must know how to identify their freshness. The fresher the shrimps, the more delicious they will be. Otherwise, the freshness will be lost and the meat will be "mouldy". Shrimp has certain nutritional value for babies. This is because shrimp is rich in trace elements such as calcium and zinc. Calcium in particular can promote the growth of the fetus and the development of the fetal brain. Therefore, as long as the baby has no adverse reactions to shrimp, he can eat it. Babies after 8 months can eat a small amount of fresh shrimp, but they must be cooked. If there is an allergy, stop feeding it and wait until after 3 years of age. Start adding a small amount at the beginning. You can chop it into pieces and put it in the porridge or puree it, but it is not advisable to eat too much.
