POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Yes, khichdi can be a suitable and nutritious food option to introduce to a 6-month-old baby. Khichdi is a well-balanced dish that typically combines rice and lentils, providing a good source of carbohydrates and proteins. Here's a simple way to prepare khichdi for a baby:
Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons rice
- 1 tablespoon yellow lentils (moong dal)
- Water for cooking
- A pinch of turmeric (optional)
- Ghee (optional, after introducing fats)
Instructions:
1. Rinse the rice and lentils thoroughly.
2. In a saucepan, combine rice, lentils, and water. Add a pinch of turmeric if desired.
3. Cook until both rice and lentils are soft and well-cooked. You can adjust the consistency by adding more water if needed.
4. Mash or puree the khichdi to a texture suitable for your baby. As your baby gets used to textures, you can make it slightly chunkier.
5. Optionally, you can add a small amount of ghee for added flavor and healthy fats.
Always introduce new foods one at a time and observe your baby for any signs of allergies or sensitivities. Consult with your pediatrician before introducing solids and for guidance on the appropriate timing and variety of foods for your baby's development.
