Are you a big fan of stir-fried noodles or Southeast Asian cuisine? If yes, what is your favourite Southeast Asian stir-fried noodle dish? Pad Thai or Singapore noodles?
Traditionally, Singapore noodles are vermicelli noodles stir-fry with Chinese bbq pork, prawn, egg and mixed vegetables, and seasoned with curry powder, salt and soy sauce.
And of course, everything being vegan here, my recipe doesn’t contain any pork, prawn and egg. I veganised the dish with smashed tofu, which gives the noodle dish an extra protein boost, it also replaces the texture of the scrambled egg.
Chop…. chop… chop… chop…
It takes a bit of time for chopping, but you can see that this noodle recipe is packed with vitamins 😀
Cut the spring onions into two parts (green and white) and slice them at a 45º angle as shown in the picture. This allows the flavour of the spring onion to be better released when stir-fried. Set aside the spring onion whilst keeping the white and green parts separate.
Smash the tofu with a fork, exactly like how we make tofu scramble.
Soak the vermicelli noodles in boiling hot water, for timing please follow the instructions on the noodles’ packaging.
Vermicelli noodles get soft quickly, so it should only be around 3-5 minutes.
Rinse the noodles with ice-cold water, shake in a sieve to remove excess water then set aside.
Mix all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl, stir well and set aside.
Now we’ve got everything ready for the stir-fry.
Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, add the sliced garlic and fry for 2-3 minutes until the garlic turns slightly golden in colour.
Add the onion and the white part of the spring onions, stir-fry for 1 minute, then add all the other chopped vegetables and smashed tofu (exclude the green part of spring onion)
Stir-fry for 5 minutes until the vegetables and tofu are tender and slightly brown in colour.
Drop in the noodles, the green part of spring onion and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir-fry until the sauce covers all the noodles equally. Serve warm.
Speed is critical here, you don’t want to take more than 3 minutes, or the noodles will become too soft.
The ingredient list has a lot of ingredients and may look very intimidating, but don’t fret if you don’t have all the ingredients, as long as you have vermicelli, curry powder, salt, soy sauce and spring onion, you are good to go! Feel free to add whatever vegetables you have!
These spicy noodles are simple to make, low calorie, gluten-free and incredibly delicious. It is also an ideal way to use up leftover vegetables. From start to the table within 15 minutes.
