ultimate-gluten-free-takeaway-guide

According to the Coeliac Society of Ireland, 1% of the Irish population have been medically diagnosed with coeliac disease, which equates to 47,500 people. However, recent Bord Bia research has found that one in five Irish adults are regularly shopping for gluten-free products.

We at Just Eat feel like dietary restrictions shouldn’t restrict you. So we’ve compiled the ultimate Gluten-Free Takeaway Guide – what you should order and where in Ireland.

Chipper

Avoid:

Chips if they are cooked in the same oil as battered fish. Chips or fish with a gluten free batter cooked in the same oil as battered products using gluten are not gluten free.

Enjoy:

Some shops have designated gluten free nights or have a dedicated gluten free fryer. You can order gluten-free Chipper from Jack Jordan’s Galway, Friar’s Takeaway Letterkenny and Leo Burdock’s.

Asian

Avoid:

Wheat noodles and soy sauce.

Enjoy:

Rice is gluten free and rice noodles are a great alternative to wheat noodles. Check out all Asian restaurant partners on Just Eat to see their gluten-free options Tuk, Koh and Saba To Go

Indian

Avoid:

Bread such as Naan

Enjoy:

Poppadoms are usually made with rice and lentil flour. Make sure these are cooked in oil that has not been used to cook gluten containing foods.
Lentils constitute a key part of vegetarian dishes and are good gluten free options.
Sauces are mostly thickened with chickpea flour or yoghurt rather than a wheat based starch, so are safe for people with coeliac disease, but do check.

You can order gluten-free Indian food from Bombay Pantry on Just Eat.

Pizza

Avoid:

Conventional bases are unsuitable for people with coeliac disease.

Enjoy:

Some takeaway restaurants now offer gluten free pizzas on Just Eat. Try Firehouse Pizza Booterstown or Ballymun and Milano.
