Today, practically the last day of the year2009, Sam was in mood to eat something which I had been chasing him with since last 2 months … Sooji Kheer! Almost every second mother in India suggests to give it to the babies as soon as they are ready to go on solids…. this is something which almost all babies relish! Sam started with solids 2 months back, but this was one thing which he never could digest… I looked for reasons behind his throwing-up and found out that it was the ‘milk’ which I used… I, unknowingly, used full cream milk which ‘obviously’ caused him indigestion … people suggested me to use low-fat (toned) milk.                                                           

Here’s the recipe for this special ’sweet-dish’ for kids… :D

Ingredients:

Method:

Roast semolina (sooji) in a pan for 2 min (till it turns golden brown. Add milk and while pouring it, keep stirring to avoid the formation of lumps. Add sugar and cook for 2 minutes. Cool it down and feed the baby!

Today I tried making it with his very own ‘Lactogen’ (formula baby milk) because he had been comfortably taking it since last 3 months, so it was kind of safe on his tummy. Moreover you don’t have to add sugar while using baby formula milk…Once prepared this dish should be used immediately. Don’t keep it for more than 30 min.Make it fresh and feed the baby!

I’ll will have to wait for the next day to see the reaction though! Hope he’s able to digest it so that I can add one more thing besides fruit-pulp and daal to his daily diet. Soon he’ll be 6 months and definitely would need more things from outside other than mommy’s milk… wish me luck!
