Here's a recipe for preparing some REAL TASTY Maggi Noodles in the microwave. The noodles come out soft, with the right amount of moisture and a full bodied taste that makes you want more.

Ingredients
2 packs of Maggi
1 tastemaker sachet - Masala flavour
Tomato ketchup - I used Kisan Tomato Ketchup
Water - 3 cups (as per Maggi instructions)
1 Microwave (of course!)

1. Add the water, tastemaker and the 2 blocks of noodles together. Make sure the noodles are immersed in the water so that they cook. Else break the noodles up or change the container.
   
2. Add 1-and-1/2 tablespoons of tomato ketchup.
   
3. Microwave it for 2 minutes. Use the normal settings of the microwave, whatever they are.
   
4. After 2 minutes, remove the container. Most of the water should be still there.
   
5. Add two more tablespoons of ketchup. Stir the contents.
   
6. Microwave it for another 2 minutes.
   
7. Done!

I used an LG Microwave (not that I like LG, but that's what the office has).

So what's so secret about this? It's the combination of ingredients and the technique of cooking. I retried the same recipe with 2 tastemaker sachets, and it turned out too spicy. The technique of double-cooking the noodles adds something special to it. Finally, some of the ketchup on the top turns dry after the second cooking session - mmmmm... tasty garnish! (Thanks to Ritesh for asking me what was so special about this :)

I'd love to have your feedback after you've tried it!
