15g carbs /  7g fat / 10g protein / 163 calories - per modest serve (without sesame seeds)


You will need:

1 pack lo-cal noodles
1 daikon radish
1 cup peanut flour or to taste ( I think i used about a 1/2c 3/4c or so)
1 heaped teaspoon red thai curry paste or to taste ( I suggest 1/2t for mild.)
Half a head of broccoli- cut into small florets - or more!
1 carrot- julienned - or more!
1/4c frozen corn - or more!
1 can low fat coconut milk
2 tb Sesame seeds- toasted. (optional) 
Smoked paprika to "Decorate" the plate- optional. Or chilli powder if you are a dare devil...


METHOD:
1 - Prepare your veggies, toast your sesame seeds.
2 - Slowly add just enough coconut milk to the peanut flour to make a smooth paste.
3 - Add your curry paste to a pan and heat about 1 minute until fragrant. (Immediately pour in coconut milk if you don't want to cough!)
4 - Pour in the rest of the coconut milk and the peanut paste
5 - Add in all your veggies.
6- Once veggies are cooked to your liking (5-10min) rinse and add in the lo-cal noodles. Cook a further 2 minutes to warm.
7 - Serve and top with toasted sesame seeds.




These are the lo-cal noodles i use, at only 20 calories for the whole pack! (Serves 2) 

This is the curry paste I used and love. Once this runs out I will try making my own or find an oil free, and vegan variety- we will see if this is possible!

I love this peanut flour!!! Just like the real thing- but lighter and less calories! High in vegan plant protein too! I get it from here.

This is the lowest % of fat I could find in the coconut milk at my local coles.
