National Burger Day with Genius Gluten Free

If you’ve followed my blog and social media accounts for a while you’ll know that I LOVE a good burger, I mean, who doesn’t?!? When I saw that National Burger Day was coming up (23rd August), I decided to come up with my own low FODMAP burger recipe to serve in the new Genius Gluten Free Brioche Burger Buns. If you haven’t tried them yet, they’re one of the new exciting products from Genius which are gluten, wheat and milk free, ideal for those of us with food intolerances. For a full list of ingredients click here.

The recipe for the low FODMAP burgers is pretty straight forward so if, like me, you’re fed up of checking the ingredients of every burger in the supermarket, to then be left with a single option that doesn’t contain onion, garlic, or mysterious flavourings, then why not give these a go. They contain herbs, spices and even ketchup and despite being low FODMAP they are packed full of flavour.

Not only have I shared a burger recipe, I’ve also come up with a low FODMAP burger sauce to go with them. I honestly can’t remember the last time I had burger sauce and it was SO good…

Homemade Low FODMAP Burgers

Servings: 4

Ingredients

For the beef burgers:

  • 500 g Beef Mince (I used 12% fat)
  • 2 tbsp Chopped Parsley
  • 2 ½ tbsp Gluten Free Breadcrumbs (I used a slice of Genius Toastie bread)
  • ½ tsp Chilli Flakes
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Mixed Dried Herbs
  • 1 tsp Mustard Powder
  • 1 Egg (beaten)
  • 1 tbsp Tomato Ketchup
  • Salt & Pepper to season
  • 1 Beef Tomato
  • 4 Cheese slices
  • 1 Round Lettuce
  • 4 Genius Brioche Burger Buns

For the burger sauce:

  • 6 tbsp Mayonnaise
  • 2 tbsp Tomato Ketchup
  • 2 slices Sweet Cucumbers/Gherkins (pickled)
  • ¼ tsp Mustard Powder
  • A sprinkle of Asafoetida

Instructions

  • Place all of the ingredients for the beef burgers into a large mixing bowl, and using one hand, mix the mince with all of the spices and flavourings. 
  • Using two hands, shape the mince mixture into four circular patties. Place on a plate and cover with cling film to rest for an hour or so. 
  • To prepare the burger sauce, add all of the ingredients to a food processor and once all of gherkin is in small pieces, place in the fridge for later. 
  • When you're ready to cook, place the burgers onto a grill, or fry in a pan with a little oil for around 10-15 minutes. 
  • Once the burgers are almost cooked, place the slices of cheese on top of the burgers to melt. 
  • Prepare your burger. Toast the Genius Gluten Free Brioche Buns slightly. Then start by placing lettuce, followed by the beef burger, cheese, beef tomato slice, and spread the burger sauce on the bun lid before placing on top! Enjoy with a bowl of fries or fresh salad. 

The burgers are juicy and flavourful, the sauce adds the vinegary kick from the gherkins, while the buns are light and not too filling, and of course there’s cheese! If you haven’t tried the Genius brioche burger buns before I’d definitely recommend picking up some from Asda or Ocado as they have an almost identical texture and taste to a gluten-containing bun and stay together, even when the burger juices fight back!

As the beef burgers are made from scratch, you can add or change any of the flavourings dependent on what you fancy. You could try adding Worcestershire sauce, nutmeg, curry powder, ground ginger, Tabasco sauce (if you like a bit of spice) or even some mixed peppers. You can then top them with a bit of avocado, bacon, a fried egg or a little bit of everything. That’s what I love about this burger as it can become whatever you feel like on the day. What’s your all-time favourite burger filling? Let me know in the comments below, or even better, let me know if you give these homemade burgers a try, after all it is National Burger Day!

Salted caramel brownies… Possibly the best brown Salted caramel brownies… Possibly the best brownies I have ever even eaten! They are packed with salted caramel chocolate spread from @marksandspencer and they honestly taste out of this world! I’ll share a link to the recipe for some weekend baking in my stories. Let me know if you give them a try!
AD The summer weather is finally here, and I’ve AD The summer weather is finally here, and I’ve been spending most of my time outside eating a variety of different colourful salads. One of my favourites to serve is this Roasted Vegetable and Feta salad drizzled with a homemade, low FODMAP dressing (extra virgin olive oil, dijon mustard, red wine vinegar). Although the low FODMAP is restricting at times, it’s so important to eat a variety of fruits and vegetables where you can. This salad is packed with mixed peppers, aubergine, courgette, sweet potato and butternut squash, served on a bed of mixed leaves, to support my gut health. I also take a @biokult__uk capsule daily to provide my gut with 14 strains of live bacteria to aid digestion, and in my own experience, reduce any unwanted IBS symptoms. I have found that since taking Bio-Kult I have had fewer flare ups, and that when I do, they don’t last as long. Let me know if you’d like to give Bio-Kult a try, or if you have any questions. #BioKult #WhatsYourGutFeeling #GutHappy

AD It’s World Digestive Health Day, so I thought AD It’s World Digestive Health Day, so I thought I’d share my top tips for looking after your gut, particularly if you suffer from IBS: 
-Eat little and often and avoid large meals. These healthy, low FODMAP Walnut Oat Bars are ideal for a mid-morning snack! Click on the link in my bio to find the recipe. 
-Take a supplement of live bacteria to aid digestion. I take @biokult__uk daily to support my digestive health and maintain a balanced gut microbiome. 
-Have regular gentle exercise. I take my dog for a walk daily and it does wonders for my gut health. 
And most importantly, look after yourself. Your mental well-being is so important and directly links to your digestive tract. Make sure you make time for yourself. Have a bath, read a book or watch that programme on Netflix, and look after number one!

A couple of weeks ago I’ve went for lunch at @th A couple of weeks ago I’ve went for lunch at @theivywinchester for my birthday! I went for the Avocado Benedict on gluten free toast which tasted delicious. I have actually reintroduced avocado, however there were other low FODMAP options on the menu such as eggs with smoked salmon or ham. I’m not sure I needed all the chips but they come with it as standard. And to celebrate I also had to order a French Garden 75 cocktail as it’s made with @hendricksgin, @stgermaindrinks elderflower liqueur, cucumber and champagne - basically my dream cocktail! 🍸 Have you been to an Ivy restaurant recently? What did you have?

I then added some ground ginger, maple syrup and soy sauce to make it slightly sticky. I served it with egg fried rice and drizzled the bowl with a plum sauce I found in @marksandspencer. It was so delicious and pretty healthy too! What are you having for dinner tonight?

They don’t contain onion or garlic but they do have mystery ‘flavourings’ and soya so without further investigation I can’t guarantee they’re low FODMAP, I gave them a go as I’m trying to reduce my meat consumption. What food are you enjoying this bank holiday?!
