Low Carb Pad Thai with Shirataki Noodles
How to Make It
Step 1
Drain the Shirataki noodles and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water. Heat a skillet over a medium heat. Add the noodles to the dry skillet. Cook for 7-8 minutes, until hot through, dry and firm.
Step 2
While the noodles are cooking, you can prepare the sauce. Add the fish sauce, tamari sauce, tomato sauce, lime juice, and maple-flavored syrup to a small bowl. Whisk together to combine. You may adjust quantities of the condiments as desired to suit your personal tastes.
Step 3
Thinly slice the garlic and the bell pepper and grate the ginger. Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over a low/ medium heat. Add the garlic, ginger and bell pepper. Sweat gently for 2-3 minutes until tender and fragrant.
Step 4
Add the shrimp and bean sprouts to the skillet. Stir well to combine. Stir fry over a medium/high heat for 2-3 minutes until the bean sprouts are hot through and the shrimp have turned pink. While the shrimp is cooking, crack the eggs into a bowl. Whisk together until smooth and well combined.
Step 5
Once the shrimp has turned pink, pour the beaten egg into the skillet. Allow to settle and cook for a moment, then scramble into the shrimp and vegetable mixture.
Step 6
Add the cooked noodles and prepared sauce to the skillet. Stir well to combine, tossing the noodles with the sauce and other ingredients. Heat through briefly.
Step 7
Divide the Keto Pad Thai between two serving bowls. Roughly chop the peanuts and scatter over the bowls. Serve hot.
