Hi,
Welcome to HCM,
You baby is a year old now and can take soft soilds as well.Liquids do not provide adequate nutrition as compared to soilds.
Following are the items which you can give him:
Rawa porridge,khichdi,mashed bananas,thick vegetable soup,soft rice and dal,yogurt,dalia porridge or khichdi,soft chappatis dipped in dhal.
Always introduce one foodstuff every week in small quantities and watch how it is tolerated.If no allergies or diarrhoea you can continue.
Hope I have answered your query.
