    Khichdi Recipe for babies a one pot nutritious meal.I started this rice dal khichdi for gugu from 8 months but make sure you start with rice porridge, dal water then slowly start with rice.

    Sometimes when we go out unplanned  and it gets late we used to take parcel for us, the moment I return back home the first thing I do is make this rice moong dal khichdi for gugu as its quick to make and he loves it so much.By the time we freshen up ourselves this khichdi will be ready.

    Not only for babies, you can feed this for kids too.Sometimes even mittu eats this but depends on her mood. 🙂

    Ingredients

    • 3 tbsp rice
    • 2 tbsp moong dal
    • 2 tbsp grated carrot
    • 1 no garlic clove
    • 1/8 tsp turmeric powder
    • 1 and 1/4 cups water
    • 1/2 + 1/2 tsp ghee
    • a tiny pinch hing
    • salt to taste

    To temper:

    • 1/2 tsp oil
    • 1/4 tsp jeera

    Instructions

    • In a mixing bowl - add rice and dal. Add water rinse it well strain, wash again and set aside.
    • In a pressure cooker add oil, jeera let it splutter then add garlic and carrot.
    • Saute for a minute. Add turmeric powder, hing.
    • Add required salt, give a quick mix. Add drained rice and dal. Mix well.
    • Add water and pressure cook for 5 whistles then simmer for 5mins and switch off.
    • Let the pressure release by itself. Open and mash it well. The consistency is up to you, you can even pulse it in mixie. But I prefer this way as its textured.
    • Add 1/2 tsp ghee mix well. Feed Khichdi warm with a drizzle of ghee!

    Notes

    • I have added little salt, incase if you are reluctant to introduce salt till 1 year then skip it.
    • The consistency is up to you, you can make it more gooey or as per your needs.
    • The quantity I've given is for 2 to 3 servings. But depends on each baby so feed accordingly, do not force feed. Don't worry you can have the leftover as its so tasty. 🙂
    • Always while starting any new food, try with just 3 to 4 spoons then gradually increase the quantity.
