Whewwww!
I'd skip the curry powder, homemade or not. I was raised in home of the
daughter of a naturopath (Lindlar graduate class of ??1924?? in Chicago).
The only seasoning we **ever** had was bay leaf in stews, cinnamon in
baked goods and fresh garlic in salad dressing, which was oil and lemon
juice. Yet my mother's cooking was delicious, and the grandkids showed
up going on about "grandma's" good cooking. She steamed her veggies,
rarely fried anything, etc. and all was scratch. I never missed curry
powder or black pepper or anything. Typical meal was baked chicken, a
salad, steamed peas with a few slices of onions, and a baked yam. We had
gravy only on Sunday. Dessert, if at all, was baked apple or custard.
I wish you luck, but would encourage you to give your child a simple
diet. I have a cabinet full of seeds, spices and herbs...my mother's
"mono-ingredient" cooking didn't ruin my taste buds at all.
