Vegetarian noodles ($3)!

A meat-free hawker lunch: vegetarian noodles for $3. 🥬😋

What we had:

This was a homely, comforting plate of vegetarian fried noodles. The base was the curly instant-style noodles, wok-fried with a bit of soy and a light gravy that keeps them slippery, tumbled with soft stir-fried cabbage, shredded carrot and crispy fried beancurd skin for a bit of crunch and savour.

On top sat a fried egg, its crisp lacy edges and soft yolk adding richness when you break it and mix it through. A spoon of chilli on the side brings a little heat if you want it.

It is the kind of simple, savoury vegetarian plate the meatless stall does well, light and easy on the stomach but full of flavour thanks to the beancurd skin and that bit of gravy. For $3 it is honest, satisfying eating, and a nice way to keep a meat-free day going.

Overall: 4.4 / 5. 😋👍🏼 Comforting vegetarian fried noodles with crispy beancurd skin and a runny fried egg. Would re-order.
