Roasted Fennel & Veggie Sushi Rice Risotto

About This Dish

A traditional stirred risotto, built around ingredients that keep things simple and easy on digestion — no tomato, no vinegar, nothing overly acidic.

Why It Works for a Low-FODMAP Diet

• Fresh vegetable broth: Use a genuinely fresh broth, not bouillon cubes or concentrate — those often hide onion/garlic powder and other concentrated FODMAP triggers.
• No tomato, vinegar, or citrus: Flavor comes from roasted fennel, hing, and fresh herbs instead.

Make It Your Own

• Herbs: Fresh dill or basil work well in place of chives.
• Bigger batch: Double the recipe and use a wider pan so the rice cooks in a thinner layer — risotto stirs more evenly that way.

Storage

Risotto is best served immediately, while it’s still creamy — the starches keep tightening as it cools, so reheat gently with a splash of extra broth to loosen it back up.
