Low FODMAP Potato Flautas

Makes 12 Flautas

Ingredients:

1 head of iceberg lettuce
1 radish, sliced
Fresh bunch of coriander (optional)
1 kg of Potatoes
Liddells Lactose Free Milk or Almond milk
12 La Tortilleria Corn Tortillas – Soft Tacos
Salt and pepper, to taste
¼ cup of Cobram Estate Garlic Infused Extra Virgin Olive Oil

Method:

1. Place the potatoes in a pot and cover in water. Bring to boil and once boiling bring the flame down to medium and let it cook for 15-20 minutes or until potatoes are tender.
2. Pour the content of the pot into a colander and leave the potatoes there to cool down and remove excess water for 5 minutes.
3. Place the potatoes in a bowl, add the olive oil and salt and then smash them using a fork or masher. Then add the milk and continue smashing until you achieve a smooth consistency.
4. Reheat the tortillas and place them in a tortilla warmer or tea-towel so they stay soft.
5. Grab one tortilla at a time and put a tablespoon full of potato mash and extend along the tortilla. Roll the tortilla and place a toothpick horizontally to keep the tortilla rolled. Do the same for the rest of the tortillas.
6. On a very hot saucepan add a tablespoon of oil and put 3 to 4 tortilla rolls. Every minute flip the rolls so all sides are fried. Fry them for a maximum of 5 minutes or until crunchy. Place the rolls on a plate with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
7. Repeat step 6 for the remainder of the tortilla rolls.
8. Place the tortilla rolls (or flautas) on a plate and cover with lettuce on top. Then add the radish slices and coriander on top.
9. Serve with a low FODMAP guacamole – click here for recipe and a low FODMAP salsa – try Bay’s Kitchen Spicy Tomato Salsa which is FODMAP Friendly certified.
