Dear all!

My son would be reaching 6 mths in another 2 weeks.

I have started solids for him 2 weeks back.
I am currently giving him 2 diets of semi-solids in addition to BF on demand.

1)Mashed moong dal khichdi (mashed to watery consistency)
2)Any 1 veg again mashed to watery consistency.

Questions:
1) Should his food of water consistency as of now. When and at what food consistency can I graduate him to.
2) How to prepare fruit juices at home. (I have read that they should be pasteurised...?)
3) I want to start Ragi. I have searched this board for various Ragi recipes. But, I am totally lost...
Should I give him only Ragi powder or mix other dals/rice also and make a mixture?
Should I add salt/sugar/jaggery/nothing to it when preparing?
Is it o to make it in cow' s mil and give him or should I only make it in water?

I have procured sprouted ragi powder. Can omebody please send me appropriate ragi recipe for me.

Thanks a lot!
Rashmi
