Instructions
  1. Grill your lamb cutlets on a pre-heated BBQ grill, fry pan or under the grill in the oven on medium to high.
  2. If cooking on a BBQ grill, cook the lamb for 3-4 minutes each side or until cooked to your liking. Cooking under the oven grill or fry pan may require different time frames so you will need to estimate a time for this based on how they cook on the inside. Try not to over cook them and test by cutting a small piece with a knife. A slight pink colour inside is perfect.
  3. Boil and cook remaining chosen vegetables in a pot with stock until well cooked.
  4. Drizzle olive oil (1-2 tablespoons) over your ready served vegetables.
  5. Serve with a cup of homemade meat stock and some lemon wedges on the side.

Clinical Notes

When digestion has improved over time, you can add chili or other garnished herbs to the cutlets for added flavour.

Instructions
  1. Pre heat oven to 180 – 200 degrees Celsius
  2. Place the pork belly in a baking dish with the rind fat (crackle top) side up.
  3. With your hands, rub lard all over the pork. This is where your hands get messy. Shake a generous amount of salt on the top pork rind and continue to rub and massage more lard and salt until the rind is well covered. Lightly give it one more sprinkle of salt on the top. The salt is what allows the rind to crackle.
  4. Place the pork in the oven at 200 degrees Celsius for 30 minutes to allow the rind to crackle and then turn it down to 180 degrees Celsius and cook for 2 - 2 and a half hours pending in size.
  5. Cut the onions in half and roast them with the punpkin along side the pork.
  6. Cook some other seasonal vegetables in some homemade meat stock for approximately 20 minutes before the pork is finished.
  7. Remove the baking tray with the pork and vegetables from the oven and set them aside on paper towel to soak up excess dripping.
  8. Drain any excess dripping from the baking tray into your dripping tray to store for later use in the fridge.
  9. To make a very tasty gravy leave one tablespoon of dripping, one onion half and one to two pieces of pumpkin remaining in the bottom of the pan that the pork was roasting in and mix with the flat of a fork to make a delicious gravy on the stove at a low heat (you can add pepper to taste).
  10. Strain the cooked vegetables and set aside the meat stock to serve as a hot beverage with your meal.
  11. Serve this delicious pork belly with roasted pumpkin and other seasonal vegetables. Stewed apple can also be eaten with this meal.

Apple Puree

Apple Pure is introduced in the Introduction Diet on stage 5.  Apple Pure for GAPS is an easy way to disguise fats.  GAPS is a high fat diet so we want to add fats to everything and apple puree is a good way to deliver it. We usually add duck fat, ghee or coconut oil.  […]

Instructions
  1. Peel and core the ripe apples and slice thinly into your stainless steel cook pot. An apple slinky is great at doing this job.
  2. Add the water and cook the apples on low whilst stirring occasionally. You may place the lid on top to create steam in the cooking process.
  3. When the apples have become soft, take the pan off the stove and mash with a vegetable masher.
  4. Add a couple of tablespoons of ghee or duck fat or coconut fat (depending on what you have introduced) and blend with the apple.
  5. Store the stewed apples in the fridge.
