6 months old Solid Advice

My baby has just turned 6 months old and I have started introducing solids. I wanted some guidance regarding complementary feeding. Could you please advise on: • Which foods should be introduced first and in what order? • What textures are appropriate at different stages (puree, mash, small lumps, etc.)? • When should I start introducing protein foods like dal, curd, egg, etc.? • When is it safe to introduce mild spices and common household foods? • Any foods that should be avoided in the first year? I would like to ensure my baby receives balanced nutrition while introducing foods safely.
