Meat and fish are a source of complete protein, iron and other useful substances, they are indispensable products in a child's daily menu. Small children are prepared dishes from minced meat and fish - due to their shape and texture, they instill in the baby the first chewing skills. These dishes include cutlets for children, meatballs and meatballs. How are they different?

Baby meatballs- minced meat or fish dishes, rolled into small balls (usually the size of an apricot or plum). In different interpretations, they exist in the national cuisines of almost the whole world. Groats are necessarily added to minced meat, most often rice, bread, sometimes onions, spices and an egg are put. Meatballs for babies are stewed with sauce, steamed or baked. Fried meatballs should not be given to children.

Meatballs. This dish gets its name from the Italian word frittatella (fried). Meatballs for kids- small balls the size of a cherry or Walnut minced meat, chicken or fish. They are usually boiled in broth, soup or, more rarely, cooked in second courses. Finely chopped onions, spices and herbs are added to the minced meat. Very rarely, bread soaked in milk or water is put into minced meat.

Cutlets for children. In modern Russian cuisine, cutlets are flat cakes made from minced meat, chicken, fish or vegetable. Children are usually served with various side dishes - cereals, vegetables, as well as with sauce or broth.

With the advent of the first chewing teeth in a child (i.e., from about 1-1.5 years old) children's menu filled with meat dishes. These are cutlets, meatballs and meatballs prepared according to special recipes. At this age, the baby needs about 70-80 g of meat products per day, 1-2 times a week they can be replaced with fish. Chopped minced meat dishes are very suitable in shape and consistency for a baby who is just learning to chew at this age.

Minced meat recipes for children

IN children's cooking the following types of meat are used:

  • beef;
  • veal;
  • lean pork;
  • rabbit.

Lamb, horse meat and venison are not used in the diet of children under 3 years of age.

Of the birds, only:

  • chicken;

Goose and duck are very fatty, difficult to digest and are not suitable for children under 3 years old.

For minced fish, sea fish of low-fat and white varieties is used:

  • halibut;
  • sole;
  • pollock.

From river fish, only:

  • Pike;

Minced meat for children's meals prepared only from fresh or chilled meat, frozen meat is not recommended, since it is impossible to control the quality and shelf life of such a product, this is fraught with the development of infections.

Carbonade, shoulder blade or thigh are best. The meat must be thoroughly cleaned of films and fat, rinsed, dried with a napkin - to remove excess fat and moisture - and then cut into pieces and passed through a meat grinder twice. For older children, from 2 years old, you can skip the meat through a meat grinder once.

FROM white bread added to minced meat, you need to remove the crust, and then soak the pulp in water or milk. Bread mass in minced meat should be no more than 25%.

In poultry, breast, thighs and drumsticks are suitable for preparing minced meat dishes. The meat is carefully separated from the bones and skin and passed through a meat grinder.

For cooking fish dishes use fillet, cleaned of bones and scales.

Cooking minced meat is a laborious process. Therefore, it is permissible to immediately prepare a sufficiently large volume of it, to make stocks for the future - to freeze portioned semi-finished products. However, they must be stored at a constant temperature in the depth freezer, repeated defrosting-freezing is unacceptable for them.

In minced meat for baby food before freezing, only vegetables or cereals are added, but do not salt and do not add spices, milk and eggs, this is done immediately before cooking after defrosting the minced meat.

Cooking methods

The most traditional way of cooking meat dishes is frying. However, fried foods are not recommended for children under 3 years of age.

tricky cupcake

Not all children love, which cannot be said about cupcakes. So why not combine them into a single whole? Beat 2 eggs with ½ cup sugar until smooth and light. Alternately add 100 g of softened butter, 2 grated carrots, 1 cup flour, 1 tsp. baking powder and knead the dough. If your kids don't mind raisins, you can add that too. Grease muffin tins with butter and fill ¾ full with batter. Bake cupcakes for 30 minutes at 200°C. For a crispy crust, you can lightly sprinkle the tops with sugar. The kid will never guess what cupcakes are made of, and will eat them with pleasure.

We hope that little gourmets will like these children's recipes and add to your collection of favorite recipes. Bon appetit and good health to your kids!
