Amazing Non Vegetarian Food In Singapore

Amazing Non Vegetarian Food In Singapore
7 min read

If you haven't eaten your way around the island, you haven't really experienced Singapore. Our food scene will take you on a whirlwind tour of Asia, and possibly the entire world, because we are a melting pot of so many cultures and cuisines. Here is a rundown on some of the most delectable vegetarian and vegan dishes that will have you exclaiming "Singapore's Shiok," from chicken rice and nasi lemak to laksa and char kway teow.

Chicken Rice

a favourite in Singapore and one of CNN's list of the "50 Best Foods In The World." This comfort food is served with rice that has been flavorfully infused with ginger, "chicken" made of soy or wheat gluten, and the star of the dish, a tangy garlicky chilli dip. At vegetarian stalls in larger food markets like Chinatown and Circuit Road, you can purchase a plate. Alternately, head straight for the popular dishes at Genesis Restaurant (vegan), 33 Vegetarian, or Privé Tiong Bahru (mainstream restaurant serving vegan chicken rice).

Kaya Toast and Coffee/Tea

It's best to start some days with some sugar, carbohydrates, and caffeine. Kaya toast and coffee make for a traditional Singaporean breakfast that checks all the right boxes. The best way to enjoy coconut egg jam on hot, crispy toast is with a cup of robust black coffee or frothy pulled tea. Heritage companies like Ya serve some of the best Kun Kaya Toast and Killiney Kopitiam, both of which are vegetarian.

Roti Prata & Murtabak

Our pizza flip involves tossing the dough, which is made of plain flour, clarified butter, and eggs, into the air before it is pan-fried to create a crisp, buttery flatbread. Roti prata come in a variety of sizes, from small coin-sized to large cone-shaped. Take a sip while it's still hot and pair it with a spicy curry or sweeten it with sugar, condensed milk, or even chocolate. Choose the stuffed murtabak for a larger meal; the vegetarian version has textured soybean "mutton" or "chicken" as the filling. Be prepared to wait in line for one of Singapore's best roti prata at Mr. and Mrs. Mohgan's (vegetarian), or choose to eat a vegan murtabak at Gokul Restaurant.

Nasi Lemak

It is simple to understand why nasi lemak is one of the top 10 healthiest international breakfasts according to TIME Magazine. Wrapped in a banana leaf are fragrant coconut cream rice, soybean and nori "fish," fried crisps, crunchy peanuts, and a potent chilli paste. The filling meal is available of the day. For some guilty pleasure, visit Xin Yuan at Fortune Centre (vegan) or Grove Café (vegetarian).

Laksa

A bowl of a thousand rice noodles that is worth slurping. Here, the curry laksa is well-liked and loaded with beansprouts, tofu, mushrooms, and konjac-based mock seafood. When it's cold outside and you want to feel warm from the rich, spiciness of the coconut curry broth inside, this dish is best consumed. Enjoy this soul-satisfying soup at Sunny Choice or Greendot (vegan) (vegan).

Rojak

a colourful assortment of fruits and vegetables covered in a tamarind sauce that is sweet, sour, and occasionally spicy. The Chinese, Indians, and Malay people of Singapore prepare differently the rojak salad, reflecting the city-diverse state's cultural heritage. For each order, a fresh rojak will be made on the spot, so choose your ingredients and request a vegetarian sauce without prawn paste. Enjoy! Sprinkle plenty of chopped peanuts on top. You can find the best rojak variations at Gokul Restaurant (vegan) or Rojak Line (vegan/vegetarian).

Char Kway Teow

This would be the perfect example of street food if we needed one. Silky smooth flat rice noodles are wok-fried in dark soy sauce over high heat with crunchy vegetables for a charred, smoky flavour. It's best to eat food straight from the wok with a side of hot "sambal" chilli paste. We can't help but go to Loving Hut (vegan) with an empty stomach when we need a carb overload.

Thunder Tea Rice

It's rare that you associate rice with tea, but this traditional dish deserves a spot among your favourites. The centrepiece of the dish, a tea soup infused with herbs, is served with white rice, blanched or lightly stir-fried vegetables, and peanuts. For an added kick, serve the dish with a side of hot "sambal" chilli paste. The vegan/vegetarian Thunder Tea stalls in the food courts of the People's Park Centre and Raffles Hospital frequently sate post-workout cravings. If you're vegan, ask if eggs can be left out.

Appam

The pancake-like dish from South India has crisp edges and a soft, pillowy centre. Before being served with fresh coconut milk and locally made orange sugar, a dollop of fermented rice batter and coconut milk is poured into the bowl-shaped wok, swirled, and steamed. Not a fan of sweets? Then, for a savoury treat, dunk the appam pancake into a spiced curry. At Deen's (vegan) in Tekka Center, enjoy it fresh.

Peranakan Kuihs

Enjoy a high tea in the distinctive Singaporean style with bite-sized petit fours, or kuihs. These traditional mixed-culture desserts come in a variety of shapes and colours and are typically steamed rather than baked. You have a lot of options, including a spherical ondeh-ondeh, a nine-color steamed cake, a moist tapioca cake, and even a blue-colored coconut cake. Versions that are vegetarian and vegan are offered by Kim Choo Kueh Chang.

Thosai

The South Indian thosai or dosa, a thin pancake made of fermented rice and lentil batter, is comparable to a crepe. You can eat the thosai plain, crispy, cone-shaped, or even stuffed with cheese or spiced potatoes. Just be sure to dip it in the accompanying coconut chutney, tomato chutney, and lentil-based vegetable stew called "sambar" as well as these other dipping sauces. There are additional dosa variations that are made from millet, oats, wheat, and semolina. Visit Madras Woodlands to enjoy a deliciously satisfying vegetarian meal.

Summing It Up
