Maggi noodles is one dish that can pass for snack, lunch or dinner among kids! Making it might be the easiest thing, but making it extra-delicious and nutritious is equally easy! A few tips can help in making this quick treat, even quicker!!
Ingredients:
- Maggi 2-minute noodles - 4 packs
- Soybeans - 0.5 cup
- Soy chunks - 2 fistfuls
- Red chili-garlic paste - 1 tsp
Method:
- Boil 2 cups of water and add the soy chunks ('Soup' mode in IP)
- After they cook and soften, drain the water and wash the chunks with cold water
- Squeeze out all the water from the cooked chunks and set aside
- Bring 4 cups of water to boil and add the soybeans ('Soup' mode in IP)
- Break the maggi noodles (in the packet), open and put them into the boiling water
- Add the masala powder packets into a cup of water and stir without lumps
- Add the red chili-garlic paste to this and stir
- Add this spice mixture to the noodles and mix well
- Add the cooked and squeezed soy chunks and cook for a minute
- Serve hot and enjoy the protein-enriched meal/snack
Tips and Tricks:
- Cleaning the soy chunks after cooking takes away the odour from them and squeezing the water keeps them ready to absorb the flavors from the liquid they are put into
- Adding the soybeans first ensures that they cook perfectly along with the noodles
- Stirring the spice-powders in water prevents lumping and ensures even flavoring
- Breaking the noodle-cake before opening the packet keeps all the crumbs that might scatter all over, otherwise
- Break them well if long strands of noodles are not desired
- Adding the soy chunks after the spices helps induce the flavors into the bland, but nutritious soy chunks
