Aloo Methi Paratha for Babies
Description
How to serve Babies at 6-9M stage
You can cut the thick paratha in long strips and place it front of the baby on their highchair tray to pick up and eat. Resist the urge to keep correcting their hold. I've noticed as long as we stay calm and don't interfere, babies will figure out the best way to eat on their own :)
