Keto Char Kway Teow (with Shirataki Noodles)
Keto Stir-fried Rice Noodles with Prawns and Cockles (using Shirataki)
Yes, with a tweak: request shirataki noodles instead of rice noodles. About 10g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Singaporean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A keto version of the iconic Singaporean hawker favourite, Char Kway Teow. Shirataki noodles replace traditional rice noodles, stir-fried with prawns, cockles, lap cheong (Chinese sausage - moderate), eggs, bean sprouts, and chives, seasoned with dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, and chilli paste.
Key ingredients
Shirataki noodles, prawns, cockles, eggs, Chinese sausage (lap cheong), garlic, chives, bean sprouts, dark soy sauce (low sugar), light soy sauce (low sugar), chilli paste (low sugar), cooking oil.
How to make it keto
Request shirataki noodles instead of rice noodles. Ask for no sweet soy sauce and minimal or no sugar added to the chilli paste/sauce. Ensure no starch thickeners. Omit or reduce lap cheong for stricter keto.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in soy sauces, chilli paste, and lap cheong. Bean sprouts in large quantities can add up. Shirataki noodles can have trace carbs.
