From what I've been told and have read... it's best to wait until six months for most babies (always check with the baby's doctor). This is a great website that I used often for food recommendations for babies:

They also have great information on what foods to avoid until the baby is older. Good eating to you baby!
I'd suggest you to watch your baby's growth closely and at some time around 4-6 months , you may notice that your baby is not getting enough from your milk. ( This is purely subjective but you are the best person to make the decision). At this stage, you can start a little (spoonfuls ) of rice water, egg yolk, a few squirts of orange juice etc.., in the beginning and if you find that everything is going well , then you can introduce some more new items- one a week or so.
Gradually you will find that your baby is enjoying all these new foods. Remember to keep up with the breast milk as long as possible along with these weaning foods.
If you would like to include cereal , you could do that too. By 1 year of age the infant should have had a taste of everything you ever want him/her to. I would advise you not to add sugar or salt additionally in any food item because you may be introducing an unwanted habit for life.

Good luck with the weaning.
