Abstract:

Family can provide complimentary food (CF) by using local ingredients with the nutritional standards set by the government which are a minimum of energy of 400 Kcal, protein of 15-22 grams, and 10-15% of fat. The utilization of local food such as rice, catfish and spinach as the main ingredients can increase the nutrient content of children under five. This study aimed to analyse the nutrient content of the CF of beleyam (a mixture of rice, catfish and chicken) and its chemical properties. The method used in this study was experimental method with proximate analysis test of protein, fat, calories, crude fibre, ash and water. The result of the CF of beleyam cereal study showed a fat level of 10.53%, protein of 18.75%, calorie of 400.92, water limit of 3.48, fibre of 1.52, and ash of 1.94. The CF of beleyam cereal has a fairly good nutritional content in fulfilling the nutrition needs of under-five children.
