I used organic baby germ rice to cook baby porridge because it is more nutritious and stickier than normal rice. I usually just add Balai thread fish or minced meat together with the washed rice in the rice cooker.

You can blend to purée the porridge after it’s cooked. Can add vegetables like carrots or pumpkin into the porridge and then blend too. If not, you can try feeding Gerber organic oatmeal cereal (mix with milk) to see if baby has lost the tongue thrust reflex and can swallow. Do a food log and try a new food at a time continuously for 3 days. This is to monitor and check if baby is sensitive or allergic to any food.
