It’s Coeliac Awareness Week – from June 10-16.

There’s a plethora of gluten-free products these days - if you're newly diagnosed with coeliac, there's no need to fear missing out.

Nici Wickes spoke to Jack Tame about the practical, social and emotional effects of coeliac disease and what to do if a friend or family member is diagnosed. 

GF WRAPS

I’m celebrating Coeliac Awareness Week with these homemade GF wraps, made using chickpea flour. They’re super simple to make and can be used to make tacos, wraps, stuffed savoury crepes and more.

Makes 6 wraps

2 tsps cumin seeds

1 cup FreshLife chickpea flour

1 cup water

1 tablespoon oil

½ tsp sea salt

Oil to grease pan

Toast the cumin seeds in a pan, without oil, until they’re fragrant – about 1 minute on medium.

In a bowl mix all the ingredients and whisk to a smooth batter. Leave to sit for 30 minutes or until thickened.

Brush a pan lightly with oil and heat to medium. Pour enough batter (about ¼ cup) into the pan and swirl it to spread the batter out in a large thin circle. Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the edges start to lift. Flip and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Repeat with remaining batter.
