i made this for alan yesterday.  it was so delicious!  i wished i had made more, so i could have some myself.

what you need:

let's cook:
1. heat the oil in a small pan and add the onion and fry until soft;
2. mix in the chicken, apricot, sultanas and tomato;
3. add the rosemary, garlic and water; bring to boil for 10 minutes, stir occasionally to prevent sticking;
4. allow to cool, then puree the mixture in a liquidizer;
5. reheat the mixture in a small pan, add the baby rice, and bring to boil for another 5 to 10 minutes; stir to mix and prevent sticking.

i modified the original recipe from "organic baby & toddler cookbook" by lizzie vann of baby organix, to suit what i can find in the supermarkets in china.  you may want to have a look at their website to more delicious foods for your kids.
