Is stir-fry ok for someone who is wheat and lactose intolerant?
Answers:
Stir fry is a cooking method, not a recipe. Whether or not a stir fry is suitable for a lactose and gluten intolerant person depends what you put in the stir fry in the first place.
A vegetable and/or meat stir fry would be fine but one containing egg noodles would not as the noodles are made from wheat.
You can worry less about lactose as very few stirfried dishes contain milk, cream or cheese.
Depends on what's in the stir fry. Most should be ok but check the ingredients because there are all different types.
Depends on the ingredients. Usually wheat intolerants can't eat any (most) breads. Rice is fine, though. Lactose = milk/milk products so just keep an eye out for that. Be careful with cooking oil too, check the ingredients. Usually people who are wheat intolerant are gluten intolerant too (can't remember if it's the same thing).
Depends on the ingredients, ask them whats in it. If you make at home its really easy to monitor what goes in it.
Stir-fry is a style of cooking. If the dish contains no wheat (no bread product), and no milk (no dairy product), it's ok. The cooking method does not add either of these things you can' t consume.
Rice, people who are wheat intolerant can eat rice and if your careful not to put any other wheat or lactose in it you could do risotto (Italian Rice) or fried rice or rice with meat.
Good Luck!
