Neel would eat pretty much everything that was spoon-fed to him at that age! I did try offering him some eggs and steamed carrot sticks when he was about 4-5 months old and the poor little baby struggled to even bring it to his mouth. I was quite comfortable feeding him purees or mashed food and had no idea how it would make my son dependent. Back then I had no idea that babies as young as six months or even younger could feed themselves! I was intrigued by the concept but wasn't brave enough to try something on my own because I was afraid of choking hazards and wasn't too keen on the mess that would follow. In no time, we moved on to rice, cereal, lentils, khichdi and what not. Each day I'd make a simple bowl of vegetable or fruit puree for my little boy who always devoured anything that was offered to him. As you all know, Neel had reflux in the initial months and hence, we were asked to start solids at 4 months.
