The ingredients of the low FODMAP mashed potatoes
This recipe consists of only a handful of ingredients:
- Starchy potatoes: the best potatoes for mashing. For example Russet Gold potatoes.
- Lactose-free milk: after mashing, add a little lactose-free milk to the potatoes to make them extra creamy. You can also use plant-based milk.
- Optional: lactose-free cream: I add a few tablespoons of lactose-free cream to the mashed potatoes to make the mashed potatoes even creamier. You can also omit this.
- Butter: at the end stir a little bit of butter into the mashed potatoes. Due to the processing process, butter is almost lactose-free.
This makes it low FODMAP and many people with lactose intolerance can tolerate some butter. If you have to eat strictly lactose-free, you can also omit this or replace it with lactose-free margarine.
Vegan mashed potatoes
You can also easily make this recipe vegan. Then use plant-based milk instead of lactose-free cow’s milk. Omit the whipped cream and substitute the butter for vegetable margarine.
