Which kid doesn't love pasta? We wanted to introduce this to our grandson but I also wanted to make it very healthy. We found they sell single ingredient pastas made completely of red lentils/ chickpeas/peas etc. We bought these to try and they tasted really good! After that we started coming up with simple, easy to make pasta recipes for S to enjoy. Our experience: We first introduced it to S when he was a little over 6 months. S loved picking up the pieces one by one and eating it. Through trial and error we learnt it's better to not overcook the pasta - mainly because though it's softer and easier to chew, it would break easily in his grip and frustrate him since he couldn't put it in his mouth. We also picked pasta varieties like fusilli or penne since they are longer cuts and easier to hold. Recipe below: 1. Make a "X" shaped cut on the tomato skin. Blanch it in water for about 5 min or until you see the skin start to peel back.  2. Sauté the garlic pods after peeling the skin in butter. 3. Mix the two together in a Mixie and grind coarsely without adding any water.Note: you can also very finely chop the cooked garlic and add to the pureed tomatoes. 4.Boil Water and add pasta to boiling water and cook until the pasta is soft. 5.Strain the water from cooked pasta and toss it in the prepared Tomato sauce and serve. Try it out and let us know if your baby loved it as well 🥰 Link in bio for more details. #babyledweaningindianstyle #babyledweaningindia #babyledweaningindianrecipes #blwindianideas #blwindia #blwindianideas #blwindianrecipes #blwpasta #pastaforbaby #tomatosaucepasta #blw6months #blwindianbaby #blwfingerfood #blwfingerfoodseries #babyledweaningmeals #blwsimpleandeasy #blwsimple https://www.instagram.com/p/CRJnAbWNqt_/?utm_medium=tumblr
