Salmon receipe for my lil baby =)

1 salmon steak
1/2 lb white potatoes
1 small sweet potato
handful of broccoli florets
1 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp milk (use breast milk, formula or whole milk)
2 oz (1/2 cup) grated Cheddar cheese
Peel the white potatoes and sweet potato and cut into dice.
Steam the potatoes and broccoli until tender
OR
combine the potatoes in a saucepan, just cover with water, simmer for 10 minutes, then add the broccoli and continue to simmer until all the vegetables are tender.
Whilst the veggies are cooking, cook the salmon. We prefer to do this by dotting it with a little butter, wrapping it in foil and baking it in an oven pre-heated to 375 deg F (180 deg C) for 10-15 mins. However, you can also poach the salmon in water or milk, or cook it under the grill (broiler) for approximately 3 to 5 mins each side, until cooked through.
NOTE: Please check the fish for bones both before and after cooking. We like to leave the skin on the salmon as it helps the fish retain those nutritious oils, but you can remove it if you wish!
Drain the vegetables (if necessary) and combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Mash thoroughly with the butter, cheese and milk and use the juices leftover from cooking the fish to thin (if needed).
Serve to your little Einstein!
