As I write this, I am sitting eating my lunch of these keto Singapore noodles. I have to say, Erika has nailed this recipe. Traditional Singapore noodles are delicious, but very high in carbs with the noodles. This keto Singapore noodles is all the Singapore noodle flavour and textures without all those carbs.
Singapore Noodles
When Erika and I were first dating we used to meet up in Newtown in Sydney and have a big bowl of Singapore noodles. Singapore noodles will forever take me back to that time when Erika and I first met and fell in love. I don’t even think we have really had Singapore noodles since those days.
Traditionally, Singapore noodles are made using rice vermicelli noodles, seasoned with curry powder and combined with vegetables, scrambled eggs and meat like prawns, beef, chicken. Erika was sure she could easily make keto Singapore noodles using shirataki noodles.
The angel hair miracle noodles that can be found at Coles and Woolworths work perfectly in this recipe. They offer the same texture and noodle feel that the rice vermicelli noodles do in the traditional Singapore noodle recipe.
Shirataki Noodles
Shirataki noodles are thin, translucent noodles originally from Japan. They are made from the konjac yam and can also be known as konjac noodles. They are a very popular noodle replacement in the low carb and keto community as they are zero carb and are very similar to a rice noodle in texture.
We love using these noodles when we are looking for a pasta fix or in Asian dishes like these keto Singapore noodles as a rice noodle replacement. They are now easily accessible in Australia with several different options.
- Slendier noodles can be found at Coles and Woolworths in the health food section. They come in different varieties including angel hair, fettuccine, lasagne, noodle and rice.
- Changs lo cal noodles can be found at Woolworths in the Asian section of the supermarket. They came in traditional noodles and ribbon noodle styles.
- Miracle noodles are available from iHerb. They have some flavoured options – garlic & herb and spinach. They also have rice, angel hair and fettuccine.
When preparing shiratake noodles, it’s best to rinse them well as they can have a fishy smell. Rinsing them seems to neutralise the smell. Shiratake noodles have no flavour that makes them a perfect noodle as they take on the flavours of the dish you are making.
Tips
- Rinse the noodles well under cold water. We tend to put them under running water for 3-5 minutes to wash away any of the fishy smell.
Suggestions
- These noodles are best served immediately. We have had them reheated, but they taste best if cooked and served straight away.

Keto Singapore Noodles
I have just finished eating my keto Singapore noodles for lunch and I can honestly say, this dish is amazing. It tastes exactly like the traditional Singapore noodles to me. The spice and flavour from the curry powder paired with egg, noodles and cabbage is absolutely delicious. The prawns and the chicken together are perfect in this dish.

Nutrition Per Serve
The first recipe I made from your website and it is absolutely amazing! My partner loves Singapore noodles and this really hit the spot for him. It was also just ridiculously easy – I used some leftover ‘rotisserie’ chicken from woolies 🙂 Thanks Dan and Erika 🙂
Such a good recipe
I made this tonight and it was delicious! I did skip the egg and chicken and used all shrimp instead, but next time I’ll try my wok and use all the ingredients. I was really apprehensive about the sauce because it was SO thick after mixing those ingredients together. I cut it with about a tablespoon of water just to loosen it up, and it worked out great. Thanks for sharing this recipe!
Glad you enjoyed it Paul!
I love this recipe. It’s fast and easy. It has become my go to recipe for a gourmet dinner .
I just made this tonight. Have been wanting to make for over a year. I used cod. Cooking out of my freezer and cabinets. This is incredible. I love Singapore noodles. When I went Keto, I spent days finding the keto versions of my favorite dishes. I will be making this for my boyfriend. I have just texted pictures to everybody! Going back through all of your recipes!
Thank you!
I am not eating this yet but promise to come back. I just discovered shiritake noodles and am Indian American and would love to incorporate them into dishes I know from my childhood. I know Singapore noodles is not one of them – but this inspired me to be adventurous and take that next leap! I’ll let you guys know what I come up with and also will report back once I try this out with my kids. It looks fab. Glad I came upon your site!
I used the Slendier soy spaghetti (around 1.7g net carbs) rather than the konjac ones and it was perfect. Absolutely delicious, very easy to make and there is no way I could distinguish this from the real thing. This recipe will definitely be a regular item on my keto journey
Thank you so much. It’s so delicious.
So glad I learned about you two and your site on Daisy’s podcast (Keto Woman). This recipe is only the second I have tried of yours, and it is going on our “regular” list. Totally the spot! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
So gad you found us. This is a super delicious recipe.
Hi there!
Can you please tell me if the macros listed are for the entire recipe, or how many servings you divided it into? (Assume two.)
Hope you’re coping with iso, and enjoy your freedom again soon!
Hi Justine all our recipes the macros are per serve. Serving size is usually at the top of the recipe and it’s 2 serves for this one
OMG…..my hubby & I have just had this for dinner AMAZING, its definitely going to be a regular on our menu, noodles we’re spot on 👍
I dont suppose you have a recipe using the konjac rice also do you. Thanks
So glad you enjoyed the Singapore noodles. We don’t currently have a recipe using the rice. We have tried it a couple of times and have not liked it
Amazing! Live your blog and videos. This was one of the best keto meals I’ve had and I’ve tried lots of things! Excellent work. So yummy.
Hi- can I use beef in this? I don’t eat shrimp/prawns and don’t want to use chicken.
Yes of course – beef or pork would work
Soooo yummy. We made this dish using the slendier soy bean pasta because konjac gives me an upset tummy. The whole family enjoyed the gorgeous comforting curry flavour- we halved the curry powder amount for the kids and added an extra sprinkle of curry powder for the adults.
They would work just as well with the soy bean noodles.
Yum!!! One of my favourites … the whole family loves it too!
Thanks Jenn.
I’ve only just subscribed to your blog, so I’m late coming to the party on this one but I can’t wait to try it. I tried shiritaki noodles just once when I first began this way of eating and would not bother to try again (yuck) until I saw this! also love the stories behind the recipes xx
The noodles absorb the flavour of the spices.
Delicious recipe and easy to make. I love the mix of prawns and chicken thighs, you have fantastic flavor while keeping costs lower as prawns are expensive where I live.
Thanks Becky. So glad you like it. It’s one of my favourite recipes.
Yummo. Really was as good as traditional Singapore Noodles. Thank you Erika and Dan. xx
We have just sat down to our dinner of Singapore noodles. So good. Glad you enjoyed them.
You guys are total gems! This is a great recipe. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you so much Sarah.
Awesome dish !!! Easy to make and delicious!!
Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it
Just had lunch and the Singapore Noodles were awesome, will definitely be having again.
It’s really delicious. Glad you enjoyed it
This looks so good Erika and Dan, will be trying it for lunch tomorrow.
