Ingredients You’ll Need to Make Classic Maggi
Maggi recipe is very easy and it requires very few spices. Here’s what you’ll need:
1 pack of Maggi noodles (any flavor you love, but classic masala is the all-time favorite)
1 and a half cups of water (just enough to cook the noodles perfectly)
1 sachet of Maggi Tastemaker masala (the magic packet that comes inside every Maggi pack)
Optional add-ons: a pinch of salt, a little butter for richness, fresh veggies (like peas, onions, tomatoes, or capsicum), grated cheese, or even eggs if you want to make it extra filling.
Step 1: Boil the Water
Take a pan and pour 1 ½ cup water.
Let it boil on medium flame.
Step 2: Add Maggi Noodles
Break the noodle cake into 2–3 parts and add it to boiling water.
Step 3: Add Tastemaker Masala
Add the Maggi Masala Tastemaker packet.
Stir well so the spices mix evenly.
Step 4: Cook for 2 Minutes
