Masala Curry with Butternut, Broccoli and Chicken
Did you ever think of giving masala curry to your kids! I give my 11 month old baby some masala and she just loves the taste 🙂 I often see parents struggling to cook for their kids as they have to cook their own meal plus one for the kids. The perfect would be to do something that will cater for everyone in the family.
It is best to give your kids the habit of eating some spices because it will develop their palates to homemade food in the future and be able to join you at your dining table. Plus spices are known to have a lot of health benefits for kids.
I bought masala curry powder without chilli; this is the one i’m using below. I started with half teaspoon masala powder and instantly her eating plate was empty 🙂
Try this recipe and let me know how your kids react to it 🙂
