Record a taste of sweet potato

Prepare with care

Steam or roast until very soft, then cut into thick sticks or wedges. One of the best starter foods due to natural sweetness and soft texture.

Age is a guide, not a readiness assessment. Seat your baby upright and stay with them while eating. The food photo is ingredient inspiration, not a serving-size or texture instruction.
