Today, I'm sharing my favorite variation of Maggi — Spicy Vegetable Masala Maggi, also known as Maggi Masala Noodles. It can be made on the stovetop or in an Instant Pot pressure cooker. This Mumbai street-style veg masala maggi is a flavorful twist on the classic, packed with colorful vegetables and aromatic spices, making it a healthier and more delicious dish.
Maggi noodles is one of India's most beloved instant noodle dishes. People of all age groups love it, be it kids or adults. It is the perfect snack recipe to curb those late-night hunger pangs or when you are too lazy to cook lunch or dinner. Also, try my other favorite Indian Maggi recipes like chilli cheese garlic maggi.
Although Maggi is not the healthiest option, eating it occasionally is okay. I have made many healthier versions like spinach corn maggi and paneer maggi, and my daughter loves these variations. So today, I am sharing an easy Maggi recipe with vegetables.
Do comment back with your favorite Maggi recipe.
I’ve always make Maggi on the stovetop, but since I started using my Instant Pot electric pressure cooker, it’s become even easier. The Maggi turns out perfect every time.

Add garam masala. Nowadays maggi masala packets are available in the market so instead of garam masala, you can buy extra maggi masala and add it to the maggi noodles recipe .

Yeah we can add anything for flavoring, extra maggi masala would be great too.
