Ingredients
Make gluten freeDECONSTRUCTED STUFFED PEPPERS
garlic infused oil
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.

- Place the rice on to cook according to the packet instructions. We used the absorption method.
- Prep the green capsicum/bell pepper and carrots.
- Heat a large ovenproof frypan over medium-high heat. Add half of the garlic infused oil and fry the beef until it’s just cooked. Then add the remaining garlic infused oil, capsicum/bell pepper and carrots. Fry for another 3-4 minutes until the beef is golden and the carrots have started to soften. Add the paprika, oregano, cumin and sugar, stir and then fry for one minute until fragrant. Turn down the heat to medium-low and add the stock, canned tomatoes, tomato paste and a few good grinds of salt and pepper. Stir well and allow to simmer for about 10 minutes or until the liquid has almost reduced.
- Once the rice has cooked, add it to the beef mixture and stir through. Remove from the heat and top with grated cheese. Place in the oven and grill/broil under high heat for 1-2 minutes to melt the cheese.
- Serve the low FODMAP speedy deconstructed stuffed peppers in bowls with a sprinkle of finely chopped spring onion/scallions.
