Barley is a protein rich cereal and is very good for your baby when weaning begins. Flavour the barley water with jaggery which is a rich source of iron. Also squeeze some lemon juice into it to provide the much needed vitamin C that protects your baby from coughs and colds.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon barley
2 tablespoons jaggery grated
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Method
1. Pressure cook the barley with 2 cups of water and the jaggery.
2. Wash, cool and liquidise it in a blender.
3. Strain and allow to cool completely.
4. Add the lemon juice.
Mix well and serve lukewarm.
Hi swapanaji,when we boil barley in 2 cups of water & jaggery,we have to remove that water or blend it in the same water.
