Millet


Tigger loves his breakfast. Initially I served it with fruit puree but I think it better for him to learn to eat it plain. As a result, every morning he is crying for cereal / porridge / rice and kicking with joy at the sight of his green bowl.
Brown rice and millet cereal - I grind them in a coffee grinder. This saves me cooking time and there is no pureeing afterwards. When baby is able to chew you can of course shorten grinding time, or abandon it completely . I cook it in the ratio  1:4 (powder to liquid). I cook using water, mostly, sometimes adding a little bit of breast milk.
Millet is a little bitter so initially I added it to rice or porridge. Now I mix it half and half, gradually increasing the proportion of millet.

Millet 


2 tablespoons millet (wholegrain)
glass of water (200ml)
milk (breast milk or mm)
fruit puree

Rinse millet under cold water and pour boiling water over it. Bring glass of water to boil, add grains and simmer covered for 15-20 min. Set aside for further 10min. Puree or put it through a sieve. Add milk to desired consistency.

Apple may be added half way cooking.
