- Protein Boost: Include paneer, eggs, or chicken to make your noodles more substantial.
- Home Comforts: Stir in your preferred veggies and spices for a more wholesome version.
- Fat Choices: While I’ve used oil, you can easily switch it up with ghee or butter for a richer flavor.

Serving Suggestions
These noodles are a delight with various accompaniments such as Chicken Manchurian, Chilli Chicken, Chicken 65, or Gobi 65.
Storage Suggestions
- Enjoy Fresh: Masala Maggi is best savored fresh off the stove. Instant noodles tend to lose their appeal over time, so it's not advisable to store them in the fridge or freezer.
- Serve Immediately: Whip up these noodles and serve them warm for the best experience.
- Creative Leftovers: If you do have leftovers, repurpose them into cutlets, omelet fillings, spring rolls, or bread balls for a tasty snack later on.

I used the Maggi Vegetable flavour and it turned out great! Subbed out the mushrooms for some corn and added frozen mixed veggies instead and some chicken.
