Healthy porridge made from corn grits, undeservedly forgotten by us, is an excellent complementary food or nutrition for children.
I believe that corn porridge is somehow undeservedly unpopular among many young mothers. In fact, this cereal is very healthy and porridge made from it is perfect for small children.
It's no secret that many mothers don't cook this porridge often because they "have to stand over it." Yes, this porridge tends to burn to the bottom of the pan if it is not stirred. But still, you should use a pan with a non-stick coating or a thick bottom and cook the porridge over medium heat, stirring it occasionally.
So, I will prepare one serving of porridge. My granddaughter eats corn porridge with gusto, both sweet and savory, with chicken or fish.
We will prepare the ingredients for making corn porridge for a child according to the list. We take the amount of cereal at the following rate: 1 part cereal to 3 parts water.
