Level 6: Soft & Bite-Sized | 30 min | Serves 2

## Family version

- Baked cod
- Sweet potato wedges
- Sauteed zucchini
- Lemon butter

## Level 6 ingredients

- 150 g cod fillet
- 160 g mashed sweet potato
- 80 g peeled zucchini, cooked very soft
- 2 tbsp thick lemon butter sauce

## Method

1. Bake the cod gently under a cover so it stays moist and flakes with a fork.
2. Check carefully for bones, then divide the fish into pieces no larger than 1.5 cm.
3. Mash the sweet potato until moist and cook peeled zucchini until it squashes easily; cut zucchini to 1.5 cm.
4. Moisten fish and vegetables with thick lemon butter sauce, with no thin liquid pooling.
5. Fork-pressure test cod and zucchini separately before serving.

## Equipment

Fork for measuring and testing

## Practical tip

Covering white fish while it bakes prevents the dry edges that make an otherwise soft fillet fail.

## Before serving

Run the appropriate IDDSI fork and spoon tests on the finished serving. Recipes guide the preparation; only testing confirms how the serving behaves.

## Safety

Use only the food and drink levels prescribed by the person's qualified clinician. Test the actual serving before it is eaten or drunk.
