Sharing gluten free, pescetarian and FODMAP friendly recipes from Melbourne, Australia
I’ve been teasing this gluten free halloumi pasta bake on Instagram for a while now. I apologise, I’m not normally that slow (I am) or intentionally withholding (mood dependent.) I made the pasta bake for my good pals at Williams Sonoma, and they’re available on recipe cards in Williams Sonoma stores right now. Hence the…

VEGAN CHOCOLATE PUMPKIN MUDCAKE. Yeah, we’re doing this. I’ve been on a Pinterest binge lately, and I couldn’t help but notice the amount of vegan chocolate cake recipes that contain applesauce. Applesauce, for the uninitiated, is normally a fantastic option for a sweetener – except when you malabsorb fructose. This got me wondering: what do…

I’ve demonstrated before (on Instagram, in my cookbook) that I love a good dukkah roasted carrot salad. I also tried to demonstrate my love for hummus in my cookbook, but I ended up inadvertently making baba ganoush. So today is a groundbreaking day for my FODMAP self: I’ve made zucchini hummus. Don’t get me wrong,…

Whenever I’m feeling sorry for my FODMAP self, I think of the low FODMAP vegans. As a general rule, vegans (or the vegans I see on Instagram, please forgive me) seem to eat a lot of fruit, and a lot of legumes – both heavily restricted on the FODMAP diet. If I couldn’t rely on…

You might be thinking 4 ingredient vegan chocolate strawberries seem too simple to warrant a recipe. I mean, that’s fair. The thing is, though, everybody loves a chocolate covered strawberry. I went to a Galentine’s Day celebration in February year, to which somebody brought chocolate strawberries. Despite the fact that we had all collectively slaved…

If you’re familiar with my Instagram account, the picture component of this FODMAP friendly fried rice recipe is something you will already have seen. Numerous times in different bowls and on different backdrops. One such backdrop was a Japanese newspaper which was, as it turns out, advertising male prostitution. They say all publicity is good publicity,…

I’d love to say that my favourite part of Vietnam was the people or the landscape or the culture. What I will say instead is that my favourite part of Vietnam was eating pho every morning. Honesty is the best policy, etc. Vegan Vietnamese is the second best policy. On the honesty note, I’d love…

Icing is undoubtedly my favourite part of a cake. It is, ironically for me, the opposite of the icing on the cake – it is the cake. As a result, my dilemma is this: I want to eat icing, but I have waistline, dietary, and ethical concerns about eating large quantities of butter and sugar.…

FODMAP friendly tomato ketchup, or tomato sauce as we call it in Australia, is very important to me. My mum used to (/still does) watch on in horror as I drenched practically any food reasonable in tomato sauce. Vegetables, fish, even scrambled eggs – nothing was/is sacred. To her, it was an offense, to me,…

Did you ever think you’d hear the words FODMAP friendly hummus? Did I ever think I’d be making something called FODMAP friendly hummus? That would be a firm no from here. Given that hummus generally comprises predominantly of chickpeas and garlic, it’s not something I’ve eaten in a long time. Hummus has such a cult…

Ok ok I know that (from Googling ‘what is Green Goddess sauce’) the original namesake contains mayonnaise. I know that. My choice of name stems in part from the need to give this green tahini sauce an identifier, and in part because all ingredients, bar mayo, are basically the same. Consider this a vegan, dietary…
