Pongal Recipe for Babies

7 Comments

My son loves pongal and every other day I used to give to him this pongal recipe that is suitable for Babies.

Pongal is an important festival in my place. Oh How we used to love those days, draw rangolis in front of the house the night before and visit the neighbor’s house in the middle of the night to see their Rangoli. In the mornings, lounge around the house eating sugarcane the whole day while the elders do the preparations for the pongal.

Those days are gone !!!

This pongal recipe can be given from 6 months.
