Instructions

Preparation

Sterilize the bowls and spoons used for feeding your baby in a vessel with hot water for five minutes and keep it immersed in the same container until use.

Method

Take Nendran banana and trim head and tail parts with a knife. Then chop them into equal size disks.
Steam the chopped banana pieces in a steamer for 10 minutes. Once the banana is steamed, it will be soft and in yellow color. Remove the seeds in the center. Now blend it with little water to a smooth paste in a blender. You can steam it with Idli steamer plate by adding a cup of water or pressure cook it with a cup of water for two whistles. For both steaming and blending, I use
Philips Avent Combined Steamer and Blender

Nutritious Nendran banana mash is ready to feed your baby.

Notes :

Generally, Nendran banana doesn't cause any allergies, but check for symptoms and stop feeding your baby if you find any.
You can add breast milk/ formula milk or water to adjust the consistency if desired.
Always check with your pediatrician before introducing any new food.
Steaming is a healthy option for baby food. So I prefer cooking using an Idli pot or steamer.
