Notes
Vegetarian version:
- Replace mince with 50% of the weight in Quorn (due to higher protein content). Quorn doesn’t need as long to cook as beef mince.
1. Milk (Dairy)
- Source in recipe: Yoghurt
- Modification: Use a dairy-free yoghurt alternative (such as coconut, soy, or almond yoghurt—choose soy/nut-free if needed for additional allergies).
2. Fish
- Source in recipe: Worcestershire sauce (many brands contain anchovies, a fish product)
- Modification: Use a vegetarian Worcestershire sauce (anchovy-free) or substitute with a mix of balsamic vinegar and a dash of tamari/soy sauce (check for other allergens as needed).
3. Wheat/Gluten/Barley/Oats/Rye
-
Possible source in recipe:
- Worcestershire sauce (some brands contain wheat/gluten as a thickener or malt vinegar from barley)
- Cornflour is typically gluten-free, but always check the label for cross-contamination if gluten/wheat allergy is severe.
- Beef stock (some commercial stocks contain wheat/gluten/barley)
-
Modification:
- Use a gluten-free, wheat-free, barley-free Worcestershire sauce and beef stock.
- Ensure cornflour is certified gluten-free if necessary.
4. Soy
