Dahi Poha Recipe for Babies, Toddlers and Kids

I have adapted the recipe from here. It's such an easy recipe to make within 15 minutes & no cooking is required, hence its ideal for travel. It can be served as a breakfast or as a quick evening snack for babies from 8 months. It's a wholesome food and is sure this dahi Chura is better to alternate to cornflakes!

Ingredients

▢ Curd/Yogurt/Dahi - 1 cup
▢ Cut fruits - ½ cup
▢ Jaggery/honey/brown sugar- 1 to 2 tbsp optional
▢ Chopped nuts - 1 tbsp optional

Instructions

Measure poha and curd. Keep it ready along with other ingredients. Soak poha in water 5 minutes. I used thick poha variety and it was soft enough to mash with 5 minutes of soaking. Thin variety poha might take little longer time.
Keep the soaked poha ready. Cut the fruits and nuts into desired size and keep aside. For small babies, powder the nuts.
Beat the curd well with a whisk and add sweetener if using.
Now add the soaked poha, cut fruits and nuts to the beaten curd. Mix well and serve.

For small babies, cut the fruits into tiny pieces or add mashed fruits instead.
