Quick & Easy Veg Singapore Noodles recipe with detailed step-wise pictures. Gluten-free vegetable Singapore Mei Fun recipe for a quick restaurant style dinner at home!
Long time no Noodles or Fried Rice recipe, so here I am with a very simple and delicious recipe – Veg Singapore Noodles. It is not uncommon to find Singapore, Malaysia and Thai versions of fried rice and noodles in any restaurant specializing in Indo-Chinese. Each of these recipes are subtly different although they use the same ingredients. Most of the Singapore Noodles dishes I have tried in restaurants so far have been spicy and with a flavor of curry. But what makes Singapore Noodles special? Using Rice Noodles instead of regular noodles.
I prefer rice noodles to the other all-purpose flour based noodles as it is very easy to cook these and are essentially gluten-free. You know how some recipes are so simple that it skips our mind to even take note of it? This is one such recipe for me. During the weekend, I made a vegetable version of the Singapore Noodles and served it with a fried egg on top for dinner. That’s when I realized I have not documented the recipe, so here goes my curry flavored, light, non-greasy, veggie loaded rice noodles. Do check out other interesting Indo-Chinese recipes.
