Indians’ love for Maggi, instant noodles, needs no special mention. The easy-to-cook dish takes merely few minutes to cook and is preferred by many. Over the years, many people have brought their own twists to the two-minute instant noodles. While some of these experimentations have worked, others have ended up irking foodies.

On Sunday, popular food vlogger Amar Sirohi (@foodie_incarnate) shared a video that showed a street vendor cooking Maggi adding extra ingredients like cream, an overload of butter and cheese, sauces, and vegetables.

Usually, one can simply prepare the noodles using its tastemaker and water. However, in this video, the cook liberally adds the above-mentioned ingredients and cooks them till the final dish loses all trace of being instant noodles. The video was taken at Raju Maggi Center, a fast food joint located in Athwa, Surat.
