How to make it
- Heat the oven to 185°C. Mash the already boiled potato. Chop the raw salmon very finely and check carefully for any bones left.
- Mix the salmon with the mashed potato and grated courgette. Shape small, slightly flattened meatballs so they cook evenly.
- Place them on lightly greased baking paper and bake them for about 15–20 minutes, until they are cooked through and the salmon reaches 63°C in the centre.
- Let them cool down and offer soft pieces suited to your child's chewing.
From about 9 months. From about 9 months, and only once your child already manages soft pieces and can chew. For a younger child, choose fish well flaked into a purée rather than meatballs offered as finger food. The quantity makes several small meatballs, not a single portion. The time assumes the potato is already boiled. For children who are just learning to chew, break the meatballs into very soft, moist pieces. Fish is an allergen: when you introduce it for the first time, offer a small amount and watch how your child tolerates it. Serve your child sitting upright, supervised, with no added salt. Allergens to check: fish.
