Look you are just emphasising so much on rise which is not even that important to be given if the child is not going to have rice nothing is going to go wrong you have an option of giving Chapati to the child Paratha to the child you can give different millet roti and Chapati to the child you only have to stick to rice give everything that’s healthy to be given to the child has a lot of kids don’t like rice of vegetables and fish is a very good option you can make grill fish with sauté vegetables like try to focus upon various recipe recipes I’m sure you’ll not even realise that the child is not eating rice
