Asian food is super popular on the blog and I understand why, it's so delicious, healthy and easy to make. That's why I want to share more Asian-style recipes with you guys and these vegan noodles Singapore are my new obsession.
I've found the traditional recipe on Pinterest and oh boy, I'm so glad I decided to give it a try and make my own vegan. These noodles are low in fat, but feel free to add any healthy fat if you want like tahini, peanut or almond butter. You can also add some coconut or extra virgin olive oil if you want.
I'm in love with this recipe because it's really versatile, so you can add any ingredient you want, depending on what's in season or what you have on hand. Don't be afraid to change it, be creative and use your favorite foods.
