Method
- How To Make Slow Cooked Corned Beef
- If you don’t have any pre-cooked corn beef then you can cook your own. Drain and rinse the corned silverside under running water (I do this twice to remove the excess salt). Then place the silverside in the slowcooker. Sprinkle the silverside with the brown sugar, cloves and black pepper. Add the rice wine vinegar, bay leaf, and carrot (chop roughly into large chunks first). Then cover with 4 to 5 cups of hot water. Cook on low for 8-9 hours, until the meat is tender. Then drain and carve.
- Corned Beef & Sauerkraut Burgers
- Make the burgers. Toast the gluten free burger buns in the oven. Grate the carrot. Layer your burger with lettuce, grated carrot, corned beef and red cabbage sauerkraut (1 to 2 tablespoons per burger). Add a dollop of wholegrain mustard and a grind of black pepper. Add a drizzle of mayonnaise if desired. Enjoy!
Buying Tips
Buy gluten free burger buns, bread, and wraps that do not contain any high FODMAP ingredients like inulin/chicory root fibre, apple or pear juice, apple fibre, concentrated fruit juices, honey, or high fructose corn syrup.
Also check what low FODMAP flours have been used, avoid gluten free products that contain amaranth flour, lupin flour, chickpea/besan/gram/garbanzo bean flour, lentil flour or large amounts of soy flour or coconut flour.
Buy normal burger buns for family members who are not on the low FODMAP diet.
Red cabbage sauerkraut is low FODMAP in 1/2 cup serves and contains moderate FODMAPs in 1 cup serves. If you can't find it in the supermarket you can make it yourself, recipe using our red cabbage sauerkraut recipe. Be aware that sauerkraut made from common (white) cabbage is high FODMAP if you have more than a tablespoon, so make sure you avoid that during the elimination phase.
When choosing your corned beef/silverside make sure the brine does not contain onion, garlic or other high FODMAP ingredients.
Check your corned beef has not been cooked with onion or garlic. Or make your own cooked corned beef at home (it's super easy). Try scheduling our Slow Cooked Corned Beef with Mustard Sauce for dinner and use the leftovers for lunch.
Check your mustard does not contain onion or garlic powder.
Choose a mayonnaise that does not include onion or garlic powder. We like using Best Foods Mayonnaise (Lite or regular). If you are a meal plan member you can also grab the recipe for our egg free mayonnaise here.
Gluten Free Tips
If you are highly sensitive to gluten, check all packaged products, processed meat (like bacon), nuts, seeds and dried fruit do not contain a warning for trace gluten. If you are just on the low FODMAP diet you do not need to worry about this.
