Notes :
  • Make sure strain the rasam for small babies. You can also serve the top liquid alone.
  • Toor dal should be well cooked and mashed without any whole pieces of dal.
  • Adjust the spiciness of the rasam by adding or reducing the black pepper.
  • Check the spiciness and taste before feeding your baby.
  • Boil the rasam in low medium flame. That is the key to make good tasting rasam.
  • Switch off the flame once it’s frothy otherwise it may taste bitter.
  • Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
  • Salt or sugar is not advisable for babies under one year.
