as suggested by rhitu n sheeba, steaming helpa

I agree with @6372999217d2c800158d8bec Steaming keeps the nutrients but you may have to give it more time to make it soft.Then you can mash it with your fingers.

boiling is easier, but steaming preserves the nutrients better...

Hi Deepa boiling is better as it makes the stuff soften u can use its water as well while making puree

boil apple and use the water...steam carrots.... check weaning receipes online to plan better

For 6 months old baby to make any purees like apple or carrot which is more preferable boiling or steaming them?
