As
for the porridge - it really depends on the rice grains
that you choose and the ingredients you add into it.
my preference is for the long grains ( according to
my mom, they are suitable for porridge ) Sometimes I
use unpolished rice/ brown rice to sprinkle in to mix
with the long grains just to give the whole meal more
texture and nutritional value.

Adding
water is important and also watching the fire on the
stove and constantly stirring the porridge to bring
it to a nice texture is important unless you have an
idiot proof porridge cooker at home! |

If
you want to make it into a cereal texture, you can further
process it in a food processor ( the ones with blades
to cut and blend etc ) |

For
thicker and creamier texture, add less water. |

I
sometimes add in pounded anchovy powder or ikan bilis
powder for the calcium punch. |

Boiling
and brewing really good soups can be very nutritional
as well, which I will share from time to time when updating
my recipe page. |

Have
fun cooking up a storm for your little ones! Just a
note to add, I started with little experience as well.
It is through reading and lots of trials and errors
that I finally got round to cooking something that my
daughter would like to eat.
Remember
though that each child is different and they take to
different foods differently at their different growth
stages. My daughter didn’t want to open her mouth
when she was about 18 months old to about 22 mouths
old. She only thrived on breast milk and fruits!
