don't add sakta n sugar in baby food till 1 year of age. You can give different taste by adding Cummin powder, Curry leaves, coriender leaves, ajawain (carrom seeds), cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, garlic, nutmeg, date puree, or boiled and pureed black fig or risings

Hi You should add salt and all the necessary spices to the phone because the doctors say that you should make the food flavourful that’s how the child is going to have it but sugar you should avoid instead you can go ahead with using jaggery powder or date syrup that’s going to be better and if it is something that you cannot avoid sugar and then you can add a little bit of it
