Best Low-FODMAP Biryani in Toronto

“The flavour of garlic. None of the pain. This version changed things for people who'd given up on biryani.”

Low-FODMAP Biryani

What the real thing tastes like

The traditional recipe uses whole garlic and onion, whose fructans trigger IBS symptoms in many people. This version infuses garlic into the cooking oil at high heat then removes the solids, keeping the flavour without the trigger compound, and uses asafoetida (hing) to replace the savoury depth onion would normally provide.

People who follow a low-FODMAP diet describe this as their way back into Indian food after years of avoidance, saying the taste is close enough to the original that they don't feel like they're eating a substitute. The rice base is naturally low-FODMAP, so the oil and spice adjustments are what make the whole plate work.
