Konnyaku Noodle & Mixed Vegetable Stew 芋丝猪肉焖杂菜


Recipe source :  My own


Konyaku noodle or shirataki,  on its own it is rather bland. It looks like glass noodle but slightly thicker in texture and it comes in neatly tied-up bunches. Cook into stew or soup with other ingredients it becomes very tasty. I love its unique crunchy texture.

  1. Hi Doris, this noodle dish is my kind of thing even though I have to be careful with my carbo intake. I would love to eat this with pickled green chillies!

  4. Hi Doris! Like Zoe, I have not tried this noodle before but it sure sounds interesting. Do we have this as a one-dish meal or this is to go with rice?

    1. Hi Alvin & Zoe, My dish goes with rice. If you wish for a one-dish meal, maybe you can add more konnyaku noodle. However, the "noodle" is more a term used, something like the "tung-hoon".
