Best Vegetables for Babies by Age

Vegetables for a 6 month baby

At 6 months, start with soft, mild, naturally sweet vegetables: sweet potato, carrot, pumpkin, bottle gourd (lauki) and peas. Steam or boil until very soft, then puree or mash smooth. Add spinach and other greens in small amounts once your baby is comfortable with the first few vegetables. Introduce one new vegetable at a time and wait 2 to 3 days before the next, so you can spot any reaction.

Vegetables at 7 to 9 months

By 7 to 9 months, add variety and texture: tomato, beetroot, cauliflower, broccoli, spinach and cucumber. Mix vegetables into dal or rice, and move from smooth puree to thicker mashes. Soft-cooked vegetable sticks make good finger food from around 8 months.

Vegetables at 10 to 12 months

By 10 to 12 months, babies can join family meals with lightly cooked vegetables in small, soft pieces. Keep seasoning mild and leave out added salt and sugar. For ideas, see our first-year feeding guide.

How to Serve Vegetables Safely

• Wash, peel and cook vegetables until they squash easily between your fingers.
• Do not serve raw carrot, raw peas or other hard raw vegetables to babies. They are choking risks.
• Leave out salt, sugar and honey. Babies do not need them.
• Offer vegetables early and often. Babies can take many tries to accept a new flavour, so do not give up after one refusal.
• Store home-cooked puree in the fridge and use it within 24 hours.

Benefits of Carrot for Babies

Carrot is one of the most popular first vegetables in India, and for good reason. It is naturally sweet, soft when cooked and a source of beta-carotene, which the body turns into vitamin A, and of fibre. Cooked carrot puree is easy to swallow and mixes well with rice, dal or other vegetables. Serve it cooked until very soft, never raw. If your baby's skin takes on a slight orange tint after lots of carrot, it is harmless and fades when you vary the vegetables. For another orange vegetable, see Sweet Potato Apple and our guide to sweet potato benefits for babies. Rorosaur does not make a carrot puree.

Carrot Soup for Babies: Simple Recipe

A smooth carrot soup works from about 6 months, once your baby has had carrot on its own.

1. Peel and chop 2 medium carrots. Add 1 small potato if you want a creamier soup.
2. Boil or steam in water for 15 to 20 minutes, until very soft.
3. Add a tiny pinch of cumin powder if you like.
4. Blend smooth with some of the cooking water until it reaches a thin, spoonable texture.
5. Let it cool, and serve warm, not hot. Do not add salt or sugar.

Store leftovers in the fridge and use within 24 hours.

Tomato Soup for Babies and Kids: Simple Recipe

Tomato is rich in flavour and works well in soups from about 6 months. Introduce it on its own first, since the acidity can cause mild redness around the mouth in some babies, which is usually harmless.

1. Wash 3 ripe tomatoes, cut a cross at the base and soak in hot water for a minute. Peel off the skin and remove the seeds.
2. Simmer in a little water for 10 minutes, with a tiny pinch of cumin powder.
3. Blend smooth and strain for a baby-friendly texture.
4. Cool, and serve warm. Do not add salt, sugar or butter for babies under 1.

For toddlers and kids, add a spoon of cooked rice or moong dal to make it a fuller meal, and keep salt very light. For a ready-made tomato option, Rice-O-Lentils is 31% tomato, with rice, peas and dals. It is a khichdi-style puree, not a soup.
