Lamb Liver

6 months and up

⚡ Quick answer

Lamb liver is rich in iron and vitamin B12; from 6 months onward it can be given well cooked and mashed in small amounts.

How to serve it by age?

6-8 months

Puree boiled lamb liver with a vegetable and introduce it in a very small amount.

9-12 months

Give it well mashed, mixed into soup or a vegetable dish.

12+ months

Offer as well-cooked small pieces, no more than once a week.

🫁 Choking risk and safe serving

Although it has a soft texture, pieces can be swallowed; give it as a smooth puree at a young age, and well mashed in later months, under supervision.

📌 Watch out for these

  • Because it is high in vitamin A, do not exceed one portion a week.
  • Cook it thoroughly; do not leave the inside pink or raw.
  • Prefer liver from a fresh and reliable source, and cook it without letting it sit.
