In this case, to make this dish healthier, choose the soup version of the dish so that the noodles aren’t fried. Drink the soup first, leaving the noodles to eat last. Always ask for NO LARD. Also, choose the bee hoon noodles (vermicelli) have a low Glycaemic Indix (Low GI) so will keep you feeling full for longer.
And, as always: Eat slowly, put your utensils down between bites and stop eating when you feel 80% full because it’s better to waste it than to “waist” it. Enjoy!
