Keto Mee Siam (with Shirataki Noodles)
Keto Spicy Vermicelli Salad (using Shirataki)
Yes, with a tweak: request shirataki noodles. About 12g net carbs per serving, on the higher side for Singaporean food, so watch the portion.
What it is
A spicy, tangy, and savoury keto rendition of Mee Siam, featuring shirataki noodles instead of traditional vermicelli. The rich, aromatic gravy is made with a rempah of dried chillies, galangal, lemongrass, tamarind, and fermented soybeans (taucheo), served with prawns, hard-boiled egg, and chives.
Key ingredients
Shirataki noodles, prawns, hard-boiled egg, bean sprouts, chives, dried chilli, galangal, lemongrass, tamarind paste, taucheo (fermented soybeans), garlic, shallots, cooking oil, chicken broth, fish cake (keto option).
How to make it keto
Request shirataki noodles. Ensure no sugar is added to the rempah or tamarind sauce. Omit any pre-made fish cakes which often contain starch.
Watch out for
Hidden sugars in rempah/tamarind paste. Fermented soybeans (taucheo) can have carbs. Bean sprouts add up.
