Paratha is a great food for babies. Not for little ones, I started feeding paratha when maha was 15 months. I made soft paratha and chapatis, tore it into small pieces. Since it is so soft Kid loves it so much.
There are so many different parathas which you can make for your baby. To make colorful paratha, add some carrot juice or beetroot juice into the wheat flour instead of water. So it is more nutritious for your baby.
