Today's nutritious recipe from Kinder Kitchen - Grandma's dahl

Today's recipe is a great way of introducing different flavours to a baby. This is a great recipe to feed a baby from 9-12 months. You could feed your baby garlic, ginger and cinnamon on their own before adding all three to a dish so as not to overwhelm them.
