If the ground rice isn't fine enough for your baby, try grinding 7 oz rice at a time for 3 min/speed 10 . This makes more of a rice flour which is more suitable for very young babies just being introduced to solids. You can then use as much rice as you need for each meal in the following proportions by weight: 1 part ground rice to 6 parts breast milk/formula milk. Add additional breast milk/formula to desired consistency.
Use whichever milk you use for your baby - or replace with water if you prefer.

“This was one of my daughter’s favourite flavour combinations when she was weaning. I would often make this purée combination for her for ‘on the go’ weaning, as it was really quick and easy to prepare before we went out. I would also take along a banana in her baby changing bag to serve alongside the purée in a finger food format.'' - Jade Brook
