Sharing gluten free, pescetarian and FODMAP friendly recipes from Melbourne, Australia
Did I not say I was going to ride this vegan tofu train until the end of time? Last week I made a vegetarian polpette bake. The polpette bake took inspiration from the vegan bolognese recipe, which spawned the vegan lasagne. Although the vegetarian polpette are a delight, I realised they had not followed suite on…

When Val Verde asked me to develop a passata-forward recipe, I thought immediately of vegetarian, FODMAP friendly polpette. After the success of the FODMAP friendly vegan bolognese recently, I developed a real penchant for utilising tofu as a meat substitute.

At this point, you’d have to be living under a rock if you haven’t heard of cacio pepe.

FODMAP friendly vegan laksa. From the outset, let’s make it clear that this laksa is probably more ‘laksa’ than laksa.
