Hi Mothers! Can you people come up with recipes for finger foods for my under one year old child? I know some but I need some more. I've googled it and could only find so-so Oyibo foods . I need Nigerian recipes please . Thank you in anticipation .

most kids in Nigeria are given lighter versions of adult foods during weaning.

eg you can water down fufu or a swallow food and add stew. Also try fish (preferably boiled), rice, etc.

basically just let the child eat with you.

actually, I dont know if there's any Nigerian finger foods specifically for children.

Okro soup with pounded yam but make it watery

mashed potato add his milk eg emfamil and boil for few minutes

Any food you are going to give the baby make it very very tender/soft

^^ helloooo

are you an only child.

Kids normally ask for a taste of whatever their parents are eating. Especially Nigerian children, unless you arent Nigerian- you wish.

Nobody's talking of force feeding here.

YOGURT-COVERED RAISINS

2 cups raisins
1 tsp. confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1tsp. light corn syrup
2 tbs. butter
1 tsp. maple
flavoring (optional; can use vanilla extract instead)

YOGURT-COVERED PEANUTS

1/2 cup plain yogurt
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 tsp. light corn syrup
2 tbs. butter
1 1/2 tsps. vanilla
8 oz. peanuts (about 2 cups)

Separate raisins, if necessary. In medium bowl, toss raisins with
confectioners' sugar until coated. Set aside. In a large, heavy
saucepan, stir together yogurt, sugar and corn syrup. Place over
medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture boils and reaches
223° on a candy thermometer, about 10-15 minutes. Remove from heat;
add butter and stir until melted. Add maple flavoring; stir rapidly
1 minute. Add reserved raisins; mix until well coated. Pour mixture
onto large baking sheet. Working quickly, use wooden spoon to separate
raisins into clusters. Let cool thoroughly. Store in airtight container.
Yield 4 cups
(For Pecan variation) Cook the yogurt mixture as described in instructions
for raisins, adding peanuts in place of raisins. They need not be coated
with confectioners' sugar as the raisins do.
