Our Review Factors
The following section covers explanation on the review parameters for Maggi Veg Atta Noodles With Spinach :
1. Taste
The whole and soul of any instant noodles is the taste maker. Infused with different spices, does it have a warming flavor? Is it spicy or perfectly balanced?
Coming to the noodle block, these are made using atta and dehydrated spinach. How different do they taste from regular instant noodles? Does the addition of spinach add a unique flavor here? Does wheat add earthiness?
2. Texture
These noodles are made using 80.5% of whole wheat (atta). Does the addition of whole wheat affect the overall texture? How is the bite post cooking?
The tastemaker has different components – carrots, toasted onions and veggies. Are these crunchy? How well do they retain their texture post cooking?
In addition, does the tastemaker dissolve easily?

A single pack of 72.5 gm of these veg atta noodles with spinach contains 266 kcal of energy, 6.3 gm of protein, 4.0 gm of fiber, 566.4 mg of sodium and 4.42 mg of iron.
On the contrary, a single pack of 70 gm of regular Maggi has 299 kcal of energy, 5.6 gm of protein, 2.5 gm of fiber, 4.8 mg of iron and 820.6 mg of sodium.

How We Made It?
We followed the same instructions as mentioned on the pack. For our preparation we added 225 ml of water, boiled it and then added the noodle block and tastemaker. Allowed it to cook for three minutes. And voila! The noodles were cooked to perfection.
Our Experience
Taste & Texture
Our cooking experience with these noodles was pretty easy. The noodles cooked up well in the mentioned time frame.
Coming to the taste, we loved every bit of these noodles. These are not spicy to the point that you might have to rush to get yourself a glass of water, but have a lovely warming spiciness that come from khada masalas. Not to forget the super-yum onion flakes and carrots which taste fresh and have a light crunch. These are added generously. These noodles are nor rubbery, chewy or squidgy. They have a nice bite to them.
If you have tried the original atta noodles from Maggi, you will not find any major difference in the taste. The presence of spinach does not bring in a unique turn, flavor-wise.
Pros
- The vegetables taste fresh.
- Generous amount of carrots and onion flakes.
- The onion flakes were super tasty.
- The noodles have a nice bite.
- Easy cooking process.
