Ocado understands that people suffering from food intolerances and allergies don’t just miss the everyday essentials; in many cases it’s often the treats that they crave. Proving that Free From foods needn’t be bland, the online grocer’s latest partner, Great British Chefs, share a number of their mouth-watering Free From recipes, all the ingredients for which are available online.
Gluten Free Chicken and Watercress Risotto
Adam Gray’s simple-to-make risotto uses chicken thighs, which are not only moist and flavoursome, but are good for shopping on a budget. Adding freshly picked watercress leaves at the end of cooking gives a vibrant colour and peppery taste.
Dairy-Free Banana Marshmallow
Banana marshmallows might sound like they’re for children but these definitely are not! Dominic Chapman has found that they are loved by adults too. Easy to make, they add a little fun to any grown up dinner party.
Gluten-Free Lightly Curried Shepherd’s Pie
This delicious shepherd’s pie from Michelin-star chef, Galton Blackiston, is a take on the South African bobotie. Rather than the traditional potato topping it uses a combination of eggs and cream
