Rice porridge or uggu in southern India is famous just like khichri and dahlia in northern parts.
There is no rocket science to make it take a cup of rice and add four cups of water and steam cook for 5 whistle
then add daal paani and little ghee and feed.
Next Steps
Try to introduce vegetables in frequent intervals and home made foods all should be introduced by 1 year including non veg
