This Raw Banana Porridge can be started for babies after 6 months.This porridge is very healthy and filling for babies.Nendran Banana / Ethaka powder porridge is a traditional baby food in Kerala,it is considered one of the best weight gaining porridge recipes.I got this powder and porridge recipe from my neighbour.
Please remember mothers feed is the best and its always good to start with other food only after the baby finishes 6 months.Always consult your pediatrician before introducing any new food.

My Notes:
- Amma suggested to roast the powder for a while then add water and cook it so nowadays I am doing that.
- As we are making powder using raw banana, cook in sim for more time to avoid stomach upset.
- For sweetner, you can either add palm sugar or jaggery syrup too.
- You can even add karupatti(Palm Jaggery) syrup.
- You can even add a drop of ghee which is optional.
