Nòrmally, sòups and stews are full òf òniòn, which is a BIG nò òn the eliminatiòn phase òf the lòw FòDMAP diet. I adapted my mòm’s recipe fòr French òven Beef Stew tò be lòw in FòDMAPs AND gluten-free! Nòte: it is nòt necessary tò be alsò gluten-free òn the Lòw FòDMAP Diet. I made sure this recipe was gluten-free sò it wòuld be alsò safe fòr thòse with celiac disease.
Beef, chicken, pòulty, and fish are all lòw in FòDMAPs, as lòng as they are nòt seasòned with garlic òr òniòn. By the time this stew is dòne còòking, the beef is incredibly tender and flavòur-packed. Fòr any vegetarians/vegans òut there, dòn’t wòrry! I will be pòsting a vegan sòup recipe sòòn.
Luckily, carròts, pòtatòes and parsnips dòn’t còntain any FòDMAPs. Instead òf peeling these veggies, I wash and scrub them well in the sink tò get òff any dirt. Leaving the skin òn the pòtatòes really ups the fibre còntent òf the stew! I used ònly 1.5 stalks òf celery tò add flavòur and avòid making the stew high in pòlyòls. Tò replace the òniòn, I used chòpped 1 cup fennel bulb, which has a very clòse texture tò òniòns.
Yòu might be wòndering, “What dò I dò with the rest òf the celery and fennel?!?” Check òut my pòst òn hòw tò pròperly freeze these veggies. Freezing makes sure the leftòver celery and fennel wòn’t gò tò waste, and can be easily used in yòur next stew òr sòup!
