Now at this point I should mention that the recipe list is designed to give my little one an introduction into a range of different foods/fruits/vegetables. You could therefore argue that this recipe would be much nicer with raspberries instead of pomegranate, but he's already tried raspberries. It's not about us, it's about them! Sometimes I find that even if I'm not that fond of something, he likes it and will happily eat it.
Ingredients
1 pomegranate
3 desert spoons sour cream
About 1 cup of icing sugar
4 kiwi fruit
100g melted butter
8 digestive biscuits
approx 400g mascarpone cheese
Method
Retrieve pomegranate from the other side of the room and explain that it is not in fact a ball. Put all the biscuits in a freezer bag or a bowl and give little one a rolling pin to smash them up. Then mix in the melted butter. Put this finished biscuitee goodness into the bottom of 6-8 ramekins depending on how much you have left.
Blend the kiwi fruit and the sour cream together. Mix in the sugar and the mascarpone cheese. Half the pomegranate and give little one half to play with and lick. Show him/her how to pick out the seeds. Take the seeds out of the other half and mix in. Fill the remaining space in the dishes with this interesting concoction and put them in the fridge to set.
I don't normally like pomegranate, having only previously tried the juice, but I loved the finished result. I'd probably make this one again.
