Maggie - An urban Household item.
It is one of the most sold food item in our defence CSD outlets.I am also a `culprit`.I take not less than 30 packets a months @ only Rs 7.70 per packet(because of a tax rebate for defence personnel).
I am a married person with a wonderful wife and a cute daughter of three years old.But, I am quite weak in cooking food.Sometimes, it happens that I am back from office in night and the food could not be prepared for some reasons beyond our normal control or we want a change of taste.
Here, I am the best when it comes to make maggie!!.My favorite way is to make first, a diluted Tomato soup, put some very small pieces of vegetables like the french Beans, potato, coriander leaf and so on.After getting everything cooked, almost, I put the Masala of Maggie in the soup.At last the Maggie itself.
Plain Maggie, itself is not nutritious, but when you supplement it with the items of your choice-an amazing dish comes out of your kitchen.
Nowadays, multiple variant of the Maggie are present in the market, but I liked the Masala varient only.
I remember my Air Force Training days.There the dinner time was up to 08:30 PM.I used to study late night also to have a better grade in the test.At around 1030, I used to have craving for some eatables.I used to make the water boiled using a 100W mini immersion rod and getting the yummy maggie.
Ihave donemany High Altitude Mountaineering Expeditions.Maggie was one of the most important food items for our breakfast as we always needed to keep our Loads as light as possible.Maggie, of course was light enough and tasty too.On mountains, appetite gets negatively affected.Maggie was too good , there.
Though Maggie is a` 2 minute affair` it`s not a recipe for health in true sense, It is made of `maida`.It does not have fibre.If you happen to take more than two maggie a day, you are likely to face constipation the next day.
Now, as I feel hungry and wife is not that hungry, I just go to have one packet of this yummy maggie without any additive.It shall take some five minutes.
Till then, just have some of your own experiences with maggie, written as comment to my review.
Bye for now.
