A low FODMAP spring roll bowl with shrimps, cucumber, bell pepper and fresh herbs

Low FODMAP shrimp spring roll bowl with cilantro and mint

Since I ate spring rolls a few times in the past weeks at the new food market in my town, I fell in love with them again.

The combination of fresh herbs, lots of vegetables and shrimps in a spring roll and that dipped in fish sauce is something I think tastes amazing. I just hate making spring rolls myself.

I find dipping the sheets in water and rolling them such a hassle and that is why I hardly ever make them. BUT I have found the perfect solution for this!

I made a shrimp spring roll bowl with cilantro and mint! All the good of a spring roll, in a bowl, without hassle. And man, this is SO GOOD!

When buying the ingredients for this recipe I found a large Turkish supermarket in the shopping centre where I always buy my groceries.

I am not sure what this is like in other countries, but in Turkish supermarkets in the Netherlands, you can buy fresh ingredients for very low prices.

I bought a huge bunch of fresh cilantro and a bunch of fresh mint for 35 cents each (in a normal supermarket I pay at least 5 times as much for a lot less) ánd I bought half a kilo of frozen shrimps for 5 euros. Finds like these make me very happy!

Notes

*Monash University tested a portion of 1/8th avocado to be low FODMAP and FODMAP Friendly tested 1/2 avocado to be low FODMAP. Therefore it is very important to test your own tolerance level. If you tolerate it well, you can use a bit more.

    Karlijn, can this be kept in the fridge overnight for lunch the next day or does it need to be eaten same day?
