SHIRATAKI NOODLE IN CURRY VEGETABLE SOUP

I should remind you, that I am lazy and this post is continuation from previous post. Most of the time, I cooked extra, for some leftover because I love leftover. It usually indulge with intense flavour because of reheating hehehe. But I love those intense and rich flavour.

SO here is the idea for you, you can remake something and make it even more better or even more delicious. In cooking, as former engineer, the mindset of “if not broken don’t fix it” is long gone, I throw it into the sea hahaha.

From previous post of “Light coconut curry” , I have left over coconut milk broth which I don’t have a heart to just throw it away. So I add to them, Good quality frozen mix vegetable which consist, egg plant, small cube of potatoes, green bean, and carrot (frozen vegetable are good, they usually froze when the veggies on its peak season and it froze on it best freshness). I love frozen veggies, will always have it somewhere snuggling comfortably in my freezer, it come handy on emergency, learn about lockdown of this year pandemic.

The Shirataki noodle itself are come from my sheer of curiosity, as it alternative to less carb and less calorie source of food, and contain good amount of fibre, it made from Yam originally from Japanese. Not that I avoiding carb (I have rice and bread as a breakfast, duh), but basically I love noodle in any of it form.

Shirataki noodle have peculiar in both flavour and texture for me, but I love it. The texture are chewy, need sometime to merge on flavouring and seasoning, and maybe because of it high amount of fibre, this noodle make me feel full for long amount of time (and I always thinking about food), hehe.

If you don’t have any coconut milk broth left over, here below are the recipe to make it from scratch.
