Gluten free lemon and poppyseed loaf

What better way to celebrate the first day of spring other than with a gorgeous gluten free lemon and poppyseed loaf. This was inspired by ottolenghi but adapted to be low fodmap.

‘The good thing’ – traditional Cypriot gluten free polenta

I’ve been on a Cypriot cooking bender this week, and it’s safe to say I’m not stopping – especially not with this syrupy, zesty dessert! A traditional pudding, typically made from semolina (but replaced it with polenta so it’s gluten free), with a hearty amount of sugar that makes for an irresistible treat. Although, the orange zest and juice helps to cut through the sweetness, so it’s not saccharine.

Shiitake mushroom and long-stem broccoli risotto

What better way to use up leftover veggies than in a simply delicious risotto, perfect for mid-week meals? The shiitake mushrooms are completely optional if you’re fine with them in your FODMAP diet; they add a miso-tasting kick and meaty texture to an otherwise mild (heat-wise) and soft risotto.

Gluten free Nutella sesame mini rolls

Nutella? Check. Even more Nutella? Double check!
The result? Even more deliciousness. This combination of chocolate spread, sesame seeds and finely chopped almonds can only be described as heavenly. The gluten free pastry offers a hard crust, adding variation to the creamy, crunchy consistency of this pastry.

Gluten-free chicken schnitzel

Another Ottolenghi-inspired recipe that guiltlessly satisfies those mid-week cravings for takeaways. Why order KFC when you can make it yourself, and even better? This gluten-free take on the traditionally Austrian fried cutlet is breadcrumbed with a combination of sesame seeds, cayenne pepper and turmeric for an alluring golden appearance.
