Sharing gluten free, pescetarian and FODMAP friendly recipes from Melbourne, Australia
A foolproof and easy gluten free pastry has eluded me for a while now. In part, because gluten free baking in general is a pickle friend. In (more significant) part, because pastry intimidates me. There’s nothing more liberating than facing your fears, however, and as a result I have realised that gluten free pastry isn’t…

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.

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. Apparently I have also conflated meatballs with romance after watching Lady And The Tramp as a…
