My DD's eat whatever we do. I usually add some cream depending on their taste, just to take the edge off some of the spices. We love a good Red Thai curry!
Yep - DD and DS both eat curry. Lots of rice helps. They like the mild ones and DS (2.5yrs) will tell me "ooo, spicy mummy" when I get thai take away green curry which is hotter. DD found a whole chilli DS had picked from the bush outside and bit into it the other day. DH had to give her a banana and milk to stop the face pulling
Yep, we have curries regularly and if it's mild DS has some and hasn't had a problem. He loves it. If it's a spicy one then I just give him whatever meat/veg I am putting in the curry and rice, without the sauce. That way I am not having to cook anything different for him.
My parents used to give me the curry they were eating, but my dad used to 'rinse' mine for me. He'd put my serving into a colander/strainer and rinse it under the tap, put it back onto my plate and just put a tablespoon or so of juice back overt it so it still had the curry taste.
DS has been eating mild curries (ie no chili and a little spices) since about 9 months. I figured he got in copious amounts through pregnancy and in my BM, so he probably knew the taste already
He's having it a bit stronger now (15 mos) and seems to love it! He hoed into some seaweed salad the other day that was a little bit spicy (I didn't realise), so we might start adding a bit to our curries every so often.
Normally I make a huge batch of tame curry and just add my own chilli flakes and salt to taste at the table
I make curried sausages and rice all the time, all my boys love it and have eaten it since they were on solids without any repercussions. I make it pretty spicy but not enough to upset tummies. Ive found if they dont like the taste of something they refuse to eat it. Curried sausage is the ONLY meal they will each have 3 helpings of!
my two have been having them since they started eating and we've never had an issue. They love laksas, thai food, mexican....guess it's what they're used to.
