How to encourage chewing

My daughter is 20 months old. She has only upper 4 & lower 4 teeth. She doesn't chew her food,she simply swallows it. I offer her mashed food. So i am worried a lot as how she will start learning the technique of chewing.

Thanx Preeti. I am also trying the same but she cuts chapati with only front teeth(lowe & upper) and throws out of the mouth. One more thing she speaks only 10 words now she is 20 months old so i am expecting that she should say few more.
