DIY Texture Modified Lamb Casserole 💚

Preparing safe, delicious and nutritious texture modified meals for people with Dysphagia isn't easy. If you are preparing meals yourself, please ensure the texture of the food you are preparing is aligned with your client's texture-modified meal plan and compliant with the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative (IDDSI) framework.

We understand that it can be a struggle to find healthy texture modified food options, so here's the recipe to our popular Lamb Shank Casserole dish 🔗 https://www.carefoodco.com.au/products/lamb-shank-casserole-1kg-iddsi-level-4?_pos=17&_sid=a7a2ab1ff&_ss=r

- 300g Carrots
- 200ml Red Wine
- 1 litre Beef Stock
- Thyme Sprig
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 30g Gravy Powder
- Lamb Stock

Method:
1. Heat the oven to 160C.
2. Brown the lamb in a medium casserole dish with a little oil, then remove from the pan.
3. Deglaze the pan with red wine and boil rapidly for 2 minutes, remove from the pan.
4. In the same casserole dish fry the onions until caramelised and then add the browned lamb, cubed carrots, beef stock and thyme.
5. Put the lid on the casserole and cook in the oven for 2 to 2.5 hours or until the meat is tender.
6. Add the gravy powder until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
7. Remove the thyme stalk.
8. To texture modify the recipe, finely process the casserole in a blender until completely smooth.
9. Season to taste.
10. Enjoy!

Have you seen this article from ABC News on dysphagia? https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-07-25/dysphagia-signs-explainer-difficulty-swallowing/104119972

It is a promising step in raising awareness of a condition that, according to the article, close to 1 million Australians live with, yet many are unaware of.

The article references Australia's food icon, Maggie Beer, who leads a world first social experiment to transform the meals and dining experience at an aged care home. It also responds to the alarming statement that people with dysphagia tend to eat and drink less because it's harder for them, potentially leading to malnutrition and dehydration.

Our vision at Care Food Co. is to create a future where all people with swallowing difficulties have easy access to enjoy the best quality, nutritious, and delicious food. We've personally experienced the impact of dysphagia and are motivated to truly change our customers' lives by providing safe, high-quality products.

If you're concerned that you or someone you know might have difficulties swallowing, consistent coughing whilst eating could be an indicator that the texture needs to be modified. However, always seek advice from a health professional.
