This porridge is made with teff flour, the grain used to make injera, Ethiopia’s everyday flatbread. It is naturally rich in iron and gluten-free, making it a simple first-food option. It requires only water and teff flour.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Cook the teff flour

10 min

Add the water to a pot and bring it to a boil. Slowly pour the teff flour into the boiling water, stirring to prevent lumps.

2

Cook over low heat

10 min

Cook the mixture over low heat, stirring constantly for 10 minutes, until it reaches a porridge consistency.

3

Flavor with banana and serve

5 min

Remove from the heat and stir in mashed banana. Let it cool, then serve to your baby with a spoon.

Reminder

Do not add all the teff flour to the boiling water at once. Add it slowly while stirring to prevent lumps that could make the porridge difficult to feed to your baby.

Bebeğim ilk seferde biraz sulu bulunca yemedi, ikinci pişirişte tef ununu iki kaşık daha artırdım ve kıvamı tam kaşıkta durur hale geldi, o zaman severek yedi.
