Dudhi / Doodhi / Bottle Gourd

Doodhi is an excellent food for babies and they will most definitely love it as it is slightly naturally sweet in taste. Just serve it up with a dash of ghee / clarified butter.

Cut and taste a small piece, if it tastes bitter then throw it away, it's not good for anyone. It doesn't really have much of a taste otherwise.

Since you will rarely find organic doodhi, soak it in salted water for 5 - 10 minutes and then rinse.

Cut and remove the seeds, specially if they are big.

Pressure cook for one whistle with a pinch of salt.

Grind to make puree and serve with a little ghee / clarified butter.

Always check to make sure that the food is cool enough for baby to eat by checking on your wrist.
