for six months old ... khichdi could be last option ... try fresh veg and fruits purees and bm is enough for the day ...anytime moongdaal and one or two veggie would be good to go in light digestable khichdis .. <br>

The normal dal that you make for everyone, just take the top portion, the liquid part only n use it , same with rice ..while the rice is almost done before u strain it take the water it's full of carbohydrates .

Hi Ranjitha - follow the 3 day rule for every thing you introduce to the baby 1. Dal ka pani - Take 2-3 spoons of properly washed and soaked moong dal. Pressure cook it 1 cup of water. 2 whistles and it is done. Initially sift it and give the dal water only to the baby. After 10-15 days , you can give this dal water without sifting and in little thin consistency. Ensure dal is completely mashed. 2. Slowly introduce khichdi : take 2 spoons of baby rice and 3 spoons of moong dal. Add 1.5 to 2 cups of water and pressure cook it till completely cooked. Mash and give in pur&eacute;e form. Add ghee in small quantity after few days . After some days when you introduce veggies and fruits you can start adding non gaseous veggies to the khichdi

@kavitha how to make dal ka <u>pani</u>

For 6 months old u need to start with dal ka pani , rice ka pani for a month ..then semi solids and then solids ..the transition has to be gradual ..<br> I gave khichdi after one year and she still loves it :-)<br> The khichdi I started with was very little rice, little dal *(toor n mung) n lots of veggies like raw papaya n banana , carrots etc ..salt n mash it ...<br> Second phase I <u>introduced</u> the ghee <br> Third I started giving tadka to the khichdi ..tadka of jeera n hing in ghee.
