The Evla's steam function is suitable for all vegetables, fruits, meat, chicken, and fish. Once the food has been cooked, simply blend your baby’s food in the same container to the required consistency (pureed – chunky).

A convenient “cheat-sheet” is located on the side of the processor to give you indication how long different foods need to be steamed for.
The Evla can also be used for warming milk bottles and defrosting baby food.
As with all parents, time is in short supply, the Evla has a self-cleaning mode, just add water and activate to start the cleaning cycle. If you prefer to clean it yourself, this can be easily done due to the large openings on the water tank and plastic jug.

Buyer’s Guide
There multitudes of baby food processors available on the market, making the right choice can be daunting. We have shortlisted the most important considerations to take into account when making your purchase so that you make the correct purchase for your family and that the appliance will actually get used to achieve your goal of providing your little ones with a nutritional healthy meal.
Easy To Use with Simple Instructions
Choosing to prepare natural healthy food for your child is the right choice for your family. Make sure that this additional task you are taking on is as easy and quick as possible. The food processor should be relatively easy to assemble, use, disassemble and clean. If this is not the case, this will quickly put an end to good intentions.
Convenient and Easy to Clean
Dishwasher safe is a must! Time is precious, so make sure you can load the dishwasher with all the dirty components and get on with spending quality time with you little one.
All plastic components will discolour with use – just cook an orange vegetable to find out how quickly this happens!
If this fact will add to your anxiety levels, it is best to search products that contain glass bowls or jugs (which come with their own cons).
Quality Factor
The baby food processor is going to be used weekly for at least the next 12 months, check that the quality of the product can last this long and that a warranty covers any malfunctions for at least a year.
Size Matters
Actual footprint of the appliance determines where you can store it. Make sure it is easy to store and retrieve if packed away – this reduces one more hurdle to making use of the baby food processor. If it can find a permanent home on the kitchen counter, it is more likely to be used.
The size of the steamer is important – the more you can steam at once the better. This step in the process is what consumes the most time. Blending only takes seconds to complete.
Cost
Spending a little more for a larger steamer will definitely save you time in the future. If it is within your budget, it is advisable to purchase the largest option available.
Final Thoughts
Every parent is concerned about their child's diet and want them to consume foods that are healthy and nutritional. The primary reason for purchasing a baby food processor's is to produce natural healthy meals for your child, where you as the parent knows exactly what is contained in their meals. It is not a decision you will regret as a parent, and is a great investment of your time.
