My Heart Is Broken

:( My family loves that boxed Curry sauce that you can purchase at Asian markets and some reg. grocery stores. The kind that is in solid blocks and you add what you want to it as it liquidfies. My dad bought a box, forgeting to read the ingredients. It has wheat in it. Right now he is preparing a big batch of it, and was just reminded by my mother and I that I can't eat it. I am devestated as I LOVE CURRY. Does anybody know of a recipe for curry? The thick kind like this box gives? My mom is going to look too, through her cook books, but I'd thought I'd ask here as well.

I miss it, too!

I googled "Japanese curry recipe" and found this, which is quite good. I use plain boxed chicken stock instead of bouillon, and I substitute gluten-free flour for the flour in the recipe, and it's fine. I sometimes mix just a bit of coconut milk in as well. You can find garam masala at Indian stores.

INGREDIENTS:

* 2 Tbsp butter

* 1 onion, thinly sliced

* 1 tsp grated fresh ginger

* 1 tsp grated garlic

* 2 Tbsp flour

* 1 Tbsp curry powder

* 2 and 1/2 cup bouillon

* 1/2 tsp garam masala

PREPARATION:

Heat 1 Tbsp of butter in a skillet and saute onion slices on low heat until they are brown. Add garlic and ginger and saute well. Set aside. Heat 1 Tbsp of butter in a medium pot. Put flour and saute on low heat.

Add curry powder and mix well. Add bouillon little by little, stirring well. Add onion in the sauce. Simmer the sauce until thickened. Add garam masala at last.

Then add whatever vegetables and cooked meat you want. I usually go the easy route and use frozen peas-and-carrots, and boneless chicken that I've already poached in the chicken stock. Sometimes I add pineapple chunks, especially if I add coconut milk. If I don't add coconut milk, I add honey or a bit of sugar--I seem to remember the boxed mix having sugar listed in the ingredients.

Hang in there--there's a gluten-free recipe for absolutely everything we love!

Somewhere I have a recipe I will look for it.

It is really yummy and really easy BUT use the best and freshest spices you can, it really makes a difference.

I've been making this one for years. Don't be daunted by the list of ingredients, it comes together pretty fast.

CHICKEN CURRY

1 chicken 3 lbs, skinned and cut up (I usually use thighs)

1 tsp salt

1 tsp garlic

2 tsp ginger

1 jalapeno (cut in half for a milder curry, chopped for a hotter curry)

2 potatoes

1 tomato chopped

1 medium onion

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice.   I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated.  I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      I am new here but celiac disease is not new to me. I was diagnosed with it at age 60. At the time I weighed a whopping 89 pounds. I was so ignorant to celiac so I buried myself in learning all about it and looking for food I could eat. I lost so much weight and stayed sick all the time. So to combat the sickness I was give all sorts of meds for loose bowels and vomiting. All that just made me sicker. Eventually I chucked it all and went back to eating like I had all my life. Now I am from the south and biscuits and gravy are a big part of our food, as are breaded foods, pasta, and sandwich bread. Through the years I would try to do the gluten free thing again and am doing it now. It has not helped any. Within and hour of eating I have to run to the bathroom. I am now 75 and am wondering if I should just forget it and eat what I like, take Immodium and live the best I can. I cannot eat before going anywhere for fear of embarrassing myself. Family and church dinners are out of the question unless I eat and run straight home. I am so frustrated I just want to sit down and cry or throw something. Does everyone go through all this?
