Nutritional values

In this recipe, valuable protein comes from both a vegetable and a meat source, which is optimal for all those who are growing. You don't need to worry about yout vitamin C and provitamin A intake, because both vitamins are abundant with over 100 percent of the daily requirement. This is good for the immune system and the eyes!

You can also prepare the sauce with dried apricots, because fresh ones are only available in season. Dried fruits contain the concentrated power of fully ripe fruits! Because not every child likes the taste of coriander, you can use parsley as a healthy alternative.
