Australia Wild Barramundi & Zucchini Purée for Babies (6m+)
Wild Barramundi & Zucchini Purée
When starting your baby on fish, mild white fish is often the gentlest first step. Australia wild caught barramundi has a naturally delicate, sweet flavour and very low mercury levels — making it one of the safest and most baby-friendly fish you can choose at 6 months.
Paired with soft zucchini, this purée blends into an ultra-smooth texture that tiny tummies handle with ease. A reassuring first fish for babies and parents alike.
Ingredients
Makes approx. 2 baby servings. Scale up and freeze the rest in ice cube trays.
How to Make
Place zucchini slices and the barramundi fillet in a steamer basket. Steam over medium heat for 10–12 minutes, until the zucchini is fork-tender and the barramundi flakes easily.
Before blending, gently run your fingers over the barramundi to feel for any pin bones. Remove all bones — this is an important safety step even with wild barramundi fillets.
Transfer to a blender or use a hand blender. Add breast milk, formula, or cooled boiled water one tablespoon at a time and blend to a completely smooth, silky consistency.
Allow to cool to a safe temperature. Offer 2–3 tablespoons to start. Refrigerate leftovers for up to 24 hours, or freeze in covered ice cube trays for up to 1 month.
Why Barramundi at 6 Months?
Barramundi is one of the mildest white fish available, with very low mercury levels — making it one of the safest first fish choices for babies from 6 months.
Tips for Parents
Offer a small amount on its own for 3–5 days before mixing with other new foods. This makes it easy to spot any reaction to fish early.
Blend extra smooth at 6 months. By 9–10 months, leave slightly lumpy or mash with a fork to build oral motor skills.
iBuddies barramundi is vacuum-sealed for maximum freshness. Best consumed within 3 months frozen. Thaw overnight in the fridge — never refreeze once thawed.
Never add salt to baby food under 12 months. The natural sweetness of zucchini and the delicate flavour of wild barramundi is everything your baby needs.
