This is a delicious low FODMAP mince meal that goes perfectly with spaghetti or mashed potato.

Note on Worcestershire Sauce & How To Replace It: Worcestershire sauce is low FODMAP even though it contains small amounts of onion and garlic. If you are concerned you can replace the worcestershire sauce with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoon of Chinese five spice, and 1/2 teaspoon of brown sugar.

FODMAP notes: Broccoli is considered low FODMAP at  ½ cup to 1 cup serves depending on which part of the broccoli you are eating. The amount of broccoli in this recipe is low FODMAP per serve.

Method

  1. Finely cut the green tips of the leek. Grate the carrots.
  2. In a large frypan over medium high heat brown the prime beef mince. Add the pinot noir wine and allow to simmer on high for 1 minute (this burns off the alcohol). Turn the element down to medium low. Then add the chicken stock (dissolve one chicken stock cube in one cup of hot water, per cup of stock required). Next add the leek tips, grated carrot, worcestershire sauce (or Chinese five spice, soy sauce & brown sugar), and dried herbs (oregano, basil, thyme). Season generously with salt and pepper. Allow the prime beef mince to simmer. Dissolve cornflour in a small amount of warm water and mix through the prime beef mince. Allow to thicken the sauce. If it won’t thicken after 10 minutes, then dissolve a little bit more cornflour and add it to the mixture. Remove from heat once the prime beef mince sauce is at your desired thickness.
  3. While the prime beef mince simmers, cook the gluten free spaghetti according to packet directions. Drain and toss with olive oil.
  4. This prime beef mince dish is very rich so you need to serve it with lots of low FODMAP veggies. Cut the broccoli and green beans into small pieces. About 10 minutes before serving, bring a medium sized saucepan of water to the boil and blanche the veggies for two to three minutes. Remove veggies once they are brightly coloured and soft.
  5. Roughly chop the fresh basil leaves and mix through the prime beef mince just before serving.
  6. Serve the prime beef mince on top of the spaghetti with the veggies on the side.
