Lunch update - Black lentils or uradach varan(as called in Maharashtra) ,sautéed bok choy and mango was devoured by BabyN. Since she is more comfortable eating with her hand, I combined rice and dal and rolled into small balls so its easy for her to hold. Ingredients for black lentils: 1/2 cup black lentils 1 tbsp fresh or dessicated coconut 2 tbsp roasted peanuts 1 garlic clove 1 onion 4-5 curry leaves 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 tsp mustard seeds Directions: 1) Grind onion, garlic,coconut and peanuts into fine paste. 2) Heat oil in a pan and add cumin, mustard seeds and curry leaves. 3) Once they start to splutter, add onion paste and cook until mixture turns aromatic. 4) Add cooked black lentils into the tadka. 5) Serve once cooled down. ******Peanut is an allergen***** Happy weaning! #blwindia #weaningideas #solidsfirst#100foodsbefore100 #lbabyrecipes#maharashtrianrecipes #marathibaby #punjabibaby (at United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/CP_s4lkB1XC/?utm_medium=tumblr
