Egg Maggi recipe | Tasty egg maggi recipe | Egg masala maggi


  Instant noodle is one of the easy meals to rely on most days and it becomes boring if it's prepared in the same way every single time. It's quick to prepare and can be customized easily with a few simple additions. Eggs and veggies make the usual instant noodles more filling and tasty. It's one of my favorite ways of eating Maggi.

  You can use veggies like carrot, bell pepper, sweet corn, mushroom, green peas, broccoli, and beans. Instead of egg, cooked chicken, beef or shrimp can also be used in this recipe.


  For this recipe you can use any brand of instant noodles you like, I sometimes use ramen instead of Maggi. Cook the noodles separately and toss it with the veggies, scrambled eggs, and the tastemaker spice mix. I also use a little soy sauce but that is completely optional. You can scramble the eggs separately or do it in the same pan as I have shown below.

    Mango rice recipe | Raw mango rice | South Indian mango rice recipe


       A simple yet flavourful rice dish for a weekday lunch would be a perfect option. Mango rice is a typical south Indian variety rice recipe made with freshly grated raw mango. And I love adding a lot of peanuts and dal in this recipe to give it a good crunch. This recipe is pretty much similar to the lemon rice recipe because of it's color and tangy taste. But for the mango rice tanginess comes from the raw mango so you'll get the nice raw mango flavor in your rice.
