- ¼ cup capsicum, chopped
- ¼ cup green peas (fresh or frozen)
- ¼ cup grated carrot (optional)
- ¼ cup sweet corn (optional)
Spices
- ¼ tsp turmeric
- ½ tsp red chilli powder
- ½ tsp garam masala
- ½ tsp coriander powder
- ½ tsp pav bhaji masala (optional but adds great flavour)
- Salt to taste (add carefully because the tastemaker has salt)

- 1–1.25 cups water (depends how soupy or dry you prefer)
- 1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
- Fresh coriander leaves
- A squeeze of lemon (optional)
Instructions (With Details)
1. Prep your veggies
Chop the onion, tomato, capsicum, and any other vegetables you’re using. Keeping everything ready speeds up cooking.
2. Heat the pan
Add oil or butter. Butter gives a richer flavour, while oil keeps it lighter.
3. Sauté the aromatics
Add the chopped onions and sauté on medium heat until they turn soft and slightly golden.
Add ginger-garlic paste and green chilli. Cook for 30–40 seconds until the raw smell fades.
4. Add the vegetables
Add capsicum, peas, carrot, and corn. Stir for 2–3 minutes so they become slightly soft but still have crunch.
5. Add tomatoes & spices
Add chopped tomatoes and cook until they soften and release their juices.
Now add turmeric, red chilli powder, garam masala, coriander powder, and pav bhaji masala.
Sauté the spices for 20–30 seconds so their flavours bloom.
6. Add water
Pour in 1 to 1.25 cups of water.
• Add less water if you prefer dry Maggi.
• Add more if you like it slightly soupy.
Let it come to a boil.
7. Add Maggi
Break the Maggi noodle cake into 2–3 parts and drop it into the boiling masala.
Sprinkle in the tastemaker.
Mix well so the noodles are coated in the spiced gravy.
8. Cook the Maggi
Let it cook for 2–3 minutes on medium heat.
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Cook until the noodles absorb the water and reach your preferred texture.
9. Final touch
Turn off the heat and squeeze a little lemon juice.
Garnish with chopped coriander.
Tips for Best Masala Maggi
