We all love Maggi! Don’t know if there are exceptions…”Din ho ya raat , bhukhe ho ya full, we can eat it anytime anywhere…. at least I can”. Surely all who have grown in Indian sub-continent will have nostalgia with Maggi and a “Maggi Story” to share. This recipe only takes 10 minutes as you can do preparation and cooking simultaneously. This maggi is big hit with my daughter, she is fussy food eater as most of kids are, but when comes to maggi, she would generally be ready.
Rather than making it normal (read as putting the noodles in boiling water with maggi masala), I prefer to add vegetables, to make it healthier. Maggi is perfect food in student life and saving grace when there is nothing available to eat in late night for students in hostels. Continue reading for the detailed “step by step recipe of vegetable maggi noodles”. This is an absolute filler and you can have as nice morning breakfast, evening snacks or as a meal.

I never lived in Mumbai, but always heard stories of Mumbai from my partner and invariably in all those stories “Vada Pav” was a common character. Vada Pav or Wada Pav is the common man’s food in Mumbai and in general all over Maharashtra region of India. This is enjoyed by all from “Rags to riches”. You will find Vada pav being sold in almost each food joint / restaurant and tastes fabulous. I got the taste of it for the first time when I went to Switzerland and on the foothill of Mt. Titlis there is this guy who sells Vada Pav with tea. I will recommend him shall you ever go there. Vada pav is one of the most humble street food of mumbai, or can say Mumbai’s very own burger. Basically it has batata bada which is sandwiched between two slices of a pav (bread loaf), along with tamarind/ Imli chutney (sweet chutney) and Mint-coriander chutney (green chutney).

Still remember those narrow lanes of old Delhi and the authentic, finger licking “Aloo Tikki Chaat” that one can find on the road side eatery. This inspired me to try this recipe out in the comfort of my own kitchen. Aloo tikki is a potato patty or cutlet made with boiled potatoes and few spices. It is served with chickpea curry and yoghurt topped with mint-coriander, tamarind / Imli chutneys. You can further try your hand by stuffing these potato based tikkies with peas or nuts like cashew and raisins. Stuffing varies as per region but the common among all is that, these are always served hot and crispy. These aloo tikki / potato patties also make perfect fillet between sandwich or burger.
