Maggi New Spicy Range Noodles – Detailed Review
How did we make these new Maggi Spicy Range noodles?
We made these instant noodles following the usual cooking instructions:
- First, we boiled 210 ml water
- Then we added the noodles and the tastemaker.
- Now, we allowed it to cook.
- Once cooked, hold it for 1 minute and serve hot.
1. Maggi Spicy Cheesy
Our Verdict
The accompanying masala powder/ tastemaker has a fiery red color. The thickness of these noodles is slightly different from regular maggi noodles. These are thicker and flatter. We loved these thick, long, bouncy noodles and the pleasant springy texture they had.
Upon cooking the noodles, the cheesy aroma filled our review lab. The aroma is similar to that of cooking butter/cheese popcorn at home. On the scale of spiciness, these noodles are extremely hot and not meant for people with a medium or low chilli tolerance. The cheese flavor is prominent too, but won’t call it fresh.
So yes! Maggi’s Spicy Cheesy noodles live up to the spice and cheese promise.

2. Maggi Spicy BBQ
Our Verdict
The included seasoning in these noodles has a muddy brown color. Compared to the Spicy Cheesy noodles, these instant noodles are slightly thinner and rounder. The BBQ flavor is on point, with a smoky touch of BBQ followed by mild spiciness. The flavor profile is not very spicy, so anyone can comfortably finish a bowl without feeling overwhelmed. However, despite the flavorful experience, the spiciness falls a bit flat and doesn’t quite live up to the “spicy” label.
