Ingredients
Maggi Noodles: This is a ready-made sachet available in every Indian store and also comes with the noodles in a small masala packet which is essential to give taste to the final dish.
This masala is added to the noodles and water for the required flavors.
I have used this masala and a few more additional ingredients to make it delicious.
Vegetables: Different vegetables such as chopped onions, carrots, beans, capsicum, and tomato are added by chopping them well and good if finely chopped.
Adding various veggies to the dish lifts the plain flavors of the delicacy and makes them more flavorful.
Eggs: I am using eggs to stir-fry them in oil and saute them well to taste this recipe like egg noodles.
Spices: The noodles pack already has a masala packet, but I always like adding spices to make it yummy.
The spices that go into making it are salt, red chilli powder, black pepper powder, ginger garlic paste, etc.

- Stir slightly in between. Cook the Egg Maggi until the water gets absorbed. Do not overcook it and make it soggy.
- Switch off the flame.

How can I make Maggi?
The simplest way is to add water to a pan, add the masala sachet ingredients to the water, add the noodles from the packet, add salt if required, or skip adding it.
Leave it to cook for 5-8 minutes on high to medium flame, and it is done. Cooking it for a longer duration makes it soggy and unflavorful.
Variations
Different ways noodles can be used, such as to make omelet and maggi omelet is becoming quite popular these days.
Also, other popular recipes using these noodles are making biryani in a simple way by making masala and cooking the noodles in it.

Maggi is a dish that can be eaten plain, but if you like to have a side dish, check out the recipe collections from my blog.
Is Maggi healthy?
It is not a healthy option as it is made using flour which is maida sometimes, or atta which can sometimes be hard to digest, but eating it once in a while in case of emergency is a good option.
Making it a regular habit is bad, as any noodle dish is not as healthy as other delicacies.

If making it for kids, it is better to skip adding salt and stick to the ingredients provided. If making it for teenagers and young ones, adding salt and other spices makes it tastier.
No, it takes more time to make Maggi. It can easily take 5 minutes at least if cooked on medium flame. If taken out in 2 minutes, the noodles remain uncooked and may cause stomach aches if eaten raw.
