Heat the oil in a large frying pan and brown the lamb.

Smooth Stage (Babies around 6 months) - Purée the meat and vegetable mixture. Mix with a little of baby’s milk if necessary to achieve a smooth consistency.
Mashed Stage (Babies 7 to 8 months) - Purée the meat, vegetables and rice together to a lumpy, mashed consistency.
Chopped Stage (Babies from 8 months) - Cut the meat and vegetables into smaller pieces and serve them separately so your baby can begin to distinguish different tastes and textures.
Toddlers & Family Foods (From 12 months) - When browning the lamb, add a diced onion. Add 1 tsp of curry paste and 2 Tbsp sultanas with the stock. Cut up sultanas as necessary.
