4. Jowar
5. Wheat
6. Fried gram
7. Brown rice.. I preffer brown rice you can use the normal ones
8. Green gram
9. Soya beans
10. corn
all in equal quantities say 100 gms then the below items you need in less quanties say 50gms
11. Sago
12. Barley
13. almond / badam
14. pistachios
15. cashew / kaju
16. peanuts
17. cardamom for flavor just a few. Its optional and can be avoided.

barley should not be given for babies until 1 yr because it contain starch.
ReplyDelete@anonymous... I think you have to clarify it from your doctor about it.From what I knw barley is one of the first foods that we introduce to babies.

Hello, Can i start this reciepe for my baby, she is 5 months old.
ReplyDeleteBetter u start after 1 y. Sometime gluten which is present in Wheat and Barley, may induce digestive problem to infants.
DeleteGive your baby breastmilk til 7 months.. babies dnt need other food for first 6 months.
ReplyDeleteThese days ppl actually have forgot about eating healthy. Porridge is an excellent diet for almost every age group people. But since preparing porridge is kind of time consuming people hesitate to prepare it. I am preparing porridge for my home.After seeing the process and ingredients that I am using my friends and neighbours started asking me to prepare for them also.I am using almost 19 ingredients including aswagandha & sprouted millets also. I am not marketing commercially but if any body wants it I would like to share my porridge happily. You can text me in the given number
