Personal Chef Special Diet Menu

Kitchen Angels’ Personal Chefs can design restaurant-quality special diet for anyone diagnosed with a long list of allergies.
Kitchen Angels has committed one day to create tasty menu for a family diagnosed with allergies listed below:

Kate - MotherAllergic to yeast(so every fruit she eats must be fresh), wheat, dairy, chocolate, all fruits except apples, potatoes, animal products like beef and pork, egg and sugar. She is intolerant to soya, and has multiple chemical sensitivity.

Marie - 15-yr old DaughterAllergic to wheat, dairy, some nuts, cocoa, chocolate, salicylates and some fruits. Sensitive to sugar and food additives, and showing signs of multiple chemical sensitivity.

Emma - 8-yr old DaughterAllergic to wheat, dairy, food additives, some nuts, cocoa, chocolate, some fruits and sensitive to sugar.

The Special DietIt is evident that it is nearly impossible to have a teatime to look forward to when diagnosed with these allergies. For years, the typical family dinner has always been Boiled Rice with Fried Spinach and Garlic.

It was with great enthusiasm that the Kitchen Angels’ Personal Chefs took on the challenge to prepare a gourmet meal for the family. Personal Chef Hassen Guerroudj designed the 5-star Gluten-free, wheat-free and dairy-free special menu as follows:
STARTERS
Bacon, Red Onion and Leek SaladCucumber and Coriander Soup
MAINS
Chicken and Basil with RiceChicken and Prawn Paella
DESSERTS
Apple and Rice Pudding StackApple Sorbet

THE VERDICT
Kate: “There was still quite a lot here that I couldn’t really eat but I did enjoy the chicken, basil and rice dish and the apple stack. Fresh herbs are great to use at home.
Marie: “I ate the bacon salad by myself and I enjoyed mucking-in in the kitchen with the chefs - the soup was fun to make. The apple stack was my favourite dessert”.
Emma: “I liked the two main meals best and the sorbet for dessert was yummy.”
