Adapt for a picky eater

  • ·Make it milder: skip strong spices, herbs and onions — keep salt, butter or a touch of cheese instead.
  • ·Swap an ingredient: trade anything they avoid for a safe favourite (e.g. cucumber sticks instead of cooked veg).
  • ·Keep things separate: serve the parts side by side, not mixed — sauce on the side.
  • ·Simplify: a smaller portion of just two or three familiar parts of the dish is a win.
