Note :

1. For baby/ Toddler convenience, I have taken more water so that it will become more smooth and mushy. If you don't want so much mushy reduce the amount of water.

2. You can add more vegetables like cauliflower, carrots to enrich the nutritional vaule.
3. You can add a piece of green chilli if your kid started to eat spices.
