High FODMAP
Madras Curry
Avoid during the elimination phase of the diet.
Madras curry delivers a medium-to-hot spice profile with a thin, tomato-forward sauce and tender protein. The base typically incorporates onion, garlic, ginger, and a robust masala blend simmered to concentrate flavors. While tomatoes and ginger are digestive-friendly, the onion and garlic foundation pushes this dish firmly into high FODMAP territory. Restaurant and takeout versions maintain traditional ratios for authenticity and consistency.

The thin sauce still carries a concentrated fructan load due to the traditional cooking ratios. Diluting the sauce with additional tomato puree and safe spices reduces intensity without compromising volume. Using garlic-infused oil and scallion whites maintains the expected flavor profile. Always verify whether restaurant recipes include hidden onion powder in the spice blend.
