hi asmita,
this is what i tried with my baby's food.....first it was just salt and pepper. then i tried corriander and cumin powder. then as she grew older i added onion/garlic powder and stuff like that. my daughter can eat spicy in a snack food but she doesn't enjoy spicy food for her meal. so i avoid chillies.
when my daughter was 8 mths old, i remember making a normal tasting dal and then straining the 'vaghar'. i used to mix the strained dal in her cereal. she enjoyed that.
keep writing

hi asmitha,
hi my daughter is 2 1/2, and i had gone thro' the same phase of feeding problem. don't get stressed out trying to feed her. i won't things like when the child is hungry she'll come to eat, b'coz i know what a mother's heart feels when the baby doesn't eat!! but just don't loose patience.
give her atleast 2 snacks between meals. likes breakfast-milk and whatever she eats. then at 10 you may give her a healthy snack like soup, fruits,crackers,cookies, some pick-up food which she can pick on her own and even play. then lunch after 2 hrs. try to put some taste to her khichdi,like a little of your curry. my daughter liked to eat foods with tatse, not bland baby food. feed mashed potatoes with butter, corn, peas. basically a child needs a good amt of carbs, which other foods like potatoes, bread, etc can give. don't just try rice.
then give her a snack at 3-4 pm, something nurtitional. carrot sticks, cheeses cubes, etc.
when a kid is a fussy eater, i think the best thing to do is keep giving her food in short intervals. this way the child will not get bored with a large meal where he/she must sit in one place for long!!
try milk shakes !!
take a cracker and put cheese on it. may be a tasty veggie you made for your lunch/dinner.
don't feel frustrated and get upset on the child. i have undergone the same and sometimes when you are tired, we get mad on the kid. even trying new recipes is time consuming, but we must keep trying.
let me know
