Amazing Low Carb Ramen

For this soup I use Japanese shirataki noodles. These noodles are made from the konjac yam and are very low in carbs and calories but full of healthy fibre. The word “shirataki” means white waterfall, referring to the appearance of these noodles. Don’t be turned off by the smell when you open the package, you just need to rinse them thoroughly before using. This recipe is super satisfying, delicious and filling! Comfort food at its best!
