garlic infused oil (optional)
FODMAP
Garlic infused oil is usually found in the cooking oil section of your local supermarket, or you can buy it online. Choose an oil that is clear and does not contain any pieces of garlic.
You can also make garlic infused oil at home by gently frying whole garlic cloves in cooking oil until they are golden and fragrant. Remove and discard the garlic before using the oil in your cooking. This is a low FODMAP way to capture garlic flavour because fructans do not dissolve into oil.

- Deseed the red bell peppers and cut in half. Place on a baking tray with the skin side up, brush with olive oil and grill in the oven on high for 4 to 5 minutes until the skin blackens. Then remove and place to one side and allow to cool.
- Peel the skin off the grilled red bell peppers and roughly slice. Place in a blender with the olive oil, garlic infused oil, rice wine vinegar, maple syrup, smoked paprika, and a few grinds of salt and pepper. Blend, then adjust the maple syrup, salt and pepper to taste. If you want to thicken the dressing, then try blending through a small amount of low FODMAP bread or a pinch of guar gum (or xanthan gum).
- Use the dressing on your favourite salads. Store in the fridge for up to seven days.
