Carrot Pudding with Cinnamon

Remember I posted my Gajar Halwa recipe once. As I suggested, I went ahead to make a 'baby' version of it.

You need:
  • 2 carrots (grated)
  • a pinch of cinnamon powder
  • a quarter cup of fresh milk (pasteurised)
  • a quarter cup of water
Method:
  1. Put the water to boil, when it starts boiling add the grated carrots. Cook for 3-4 minutes.
  2. Add the milk. Cook on a low flame for 5-7 minutes stirring occasionally
  3. Add cinnamon powder, cook for 2-3 minutes more.
  4. At this point, you can add a little amount of unsalted butter if your baby is ready for it.
Does not take that long, and it gives the whole house a yummy fragrance. The best thing is, if your baby still takes pureed food (like mine), you do not need to blend this one further as the grated carrots are good enough to be eaten, also give some coarser texture for your exploring baby to gum on it. You can serve it on its own, or with cereal. Works great as breakfast or mixed with other fruits for other meals or snack.
