Start by preparing the noodles. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, cook the Indomie Goreng noodles for about 3 minutes or until they are just tender. Drain them and set aside.
In a non-stick skillet, lightly spray with cooking spray and heat over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and shallot, sauté for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add red bell pepper and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet and pour in the egg whites. Scramble until they are cooked through, then mix them with the vegetables.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet along with low-sodium soy sauce, kecap manis, chili paste, and lime juice. Toss everything together to evenly coat the noodles with sauces.
Stir in the bean sprouts and half of the green onions, and cook for another minute.
Once everything is well combined and heated through, turn off the heat. Add the reduced-fat margarine, and toss until melted throughout.
Serve the Low Fat Indomie Goreng immediately, garnished with the remaining green onions and a sprinkle of black pepper for extra flavor.
