- Cooked Rice - 3 tbsp
- Spinach leaves - 1 cup tightly packed
- Homemade Ghee - ½ Tsp
- Garlic - 1 clove
- Turmeric powder - a generous pinch
- Salt - as needed salt is not recommended for babies under one year of age

Method
Pick the leaves alone from the keerai bunch and wash the collected keerai/spinach leaves well in running water. Transfer them to a small pressure cooker along with turmeric powder and garlic. Add ¼ cup of water and close the lid of the pressure cooker. Pressure cook it for three whistles in medium low flame.
Open the cooker once the pressure released. Cool it down and transfer the pressure cooked contents to a blender. Blend everything to a smooth paste.
Then add ghee and salt to the spinach puree. Mix it well with a spoon. Set this aside.
Take mashed rice in a mixing bowl and add 2 to 3 tablespoon of spinach puree to it. Mix the rice well with your hands and feed your baby warm.
