Recipe #136223 is a better recipe for Singapore Noodles. This recipe calls for lime juice which makes the dish sour. Also, the ingredients are not listed in order.

I didn't have any shrimp, so I added a couple of tablespoons of fish sauce instead. This was delicious. My kids said it tasted like it came from a restaurant. We all ate way too much and loved every bite of it. Yum yum.
