Instant Sooji Cereal and Sooji Porridge for Babies & Toddlers

Sooji or Rava is very famous in India due to its versatility. It used to make halwa, kheer, porridges, upma, idli, dosa, and many more recipes. Sooji porridge is the first food given to babies in many houses. This coarse rava/suji/sooji is made from durum wheat and is granular in texture. Instant Sooji Cereal and Sooji Porridge can be easily made at home and stored for few months to use. This is great travel-friendly baby food too.

In this Instant Sooji Cereal mix, I’ve used groundnuts and almonds which can be skipped for babies below 8 months. Instead, just add one cardamom or a piece of cinnamon to add flavor naturally. Instant Sooji Cereal and Sooji Porridge for Babies & Toddlers is a stage 1 baby food and can be given to babies after introducing basic solids.
