CHECK freshness of the fresh goat cheese (smell, texture) Break the fresh goat cheese into regular 2 cm pieces (finer for 12-18 months) WASH corn and CUT KERNELS IN HALF lengthwise (CRITICAL - whole kernels are choking hazard) Cook the brown rice as directed (25-30 min) PIT cherries carefully (CRITICAL - pit is choking hazard) and cut in half
Take all ingredients out 20 min before (room temperature) Cutting board Paring knife Kitchen scale Mixing bowl Steamer pot Do NOT serve if baby is lactose-allergic Do NOT serve if baby is egg-allergic CRITICAL: cherry pit is choking hazard CRITICAL: whole corn kernels are choking hazard Do not cut too large: choking hazard Do not add salt: baby's immature kidneys Cut ALL pieces the same size for even cooking For 12-18 months: thinner pieces (1 cm) CRITICAL: confirm NO lactose AND NO egg allergy before serving ALWAYS cut corn kernels in half lengthwise ALWAYS remove cherry pits Take out 30 min before for better incorporation 2
Mix the cooked brown rice and corn halves in a large bowl Add the fresh goat cheese pieces and pitted cherries, mix gently Add the beaten egg as binder Pour in the olive oil and chervil Mix with a wooden spoon Prepare bamboo skewers (soak in water 10 min) Thread ingredients on skewers alternating goat cheese, corn, cherries Place on a tray lined with parchment Let rest 5 min in the fridge Bamboo skewers Large bowl Wooden spoon Tray lined with parchment Do not overmix: fresh goat cheese breaks Do not forget to soak skewers (fire risk) Do not make skewers too dense (cooking) Always check cherry pits are removed Always check corn kernels are halved Always check egg freshness If the dough is too sticky: add 1 tsp rice flour If too dry: add 1 tsp liquid (water or adapted milk) Soak skewers to prevent burning Make alternating colors for visual appeal Vary portions according to age For 24-36 months: bigger pieces on skewers 3
