Moderate FODMAP
Green Curry Paste
Limit your serving size. Portion control matters here.
Green curry paste blends chilies, herbs, spices, and sometimes shrimp paste into a concentrated flavor base. Pure herbs and peppers contain zero fermentable carbohydrates and remain highly compatible with sensitive digestion. Traditional recipes frequently incorporate lemongrass, galangal, and shallots, which introduce varying fructan loads. Commercial jars often add wheat starch or sugar to stabilize texture and standardize batch consistency. Selecting verified low-FODMAP brands and using measured portions ensures safer consumption.

Choose brands that explicitly state they are garlic-free and onion-free, and simmer paste thoroughly in coconut milk to dilute intensity. Avoid commercial varieties that list sugar or wheat near the top of the ingredient panel to minimize triggers. Store opened containers in the refrigerator with a thin oil layer on top to preserve vibrant color.
