Indonesian here, there's one key factor that lots of people worldwide who eats Indomie do wrong when they cook an Indomie soup: they use too much water! that's why it tasted too mild! i hope you'll try the chicken curry again with less water in the future.. P.S. in my opinion, Indomie being sold in Indonesia actually has quite a different taste with the ones sold worldwide.. the one you tried is the Chicken Curry flavor that is being sold for the middle east (hence the arabic translation).

Maggie is sold in many regions of Asia. The Indian versions and the ones sold in South East Asia is very much different. You could make an episode trying the different flavours of Maggie from SEA. Small fun fact, in Singapore and Malaysia we don't say Ramen. We just say Maggie. Even if we are having different Brands. Maggie = Instant Noodles.

i grew up on maggi since i live in India :D and it definitely takes a bit longer than 2 mins hehe. The most recent way i dress it up is that i empty the seasoning in a bowl, add some minced garlic and cilantro and pour hot oil over it. Then i add the drained noodles and garnish with more cilantro and lemon. If im feeling lazy tho, soupy maggi ftw hehe
Indonesian here. My opinion might not be popular, but as someone who love food with strong flavor, for soupy curry noodle, my go to is mie sedaaap kari special. The soup is thick and rich of flavour, waaayy more flavourful than the indomie one. The texture of the noodles is also better to my liking because it's bouncier than indomie. The best curry noodles i have ever tried so far 😍
Agree! I’m more of a mie sedaap girl than an indomie girl❤ and I always choose kari special❤❤❤❤ its too bad that just indomie that got popular, cs a lot of people around me liked mie sedaap more than indomie🤷♀️
@@leesoodam8267 i said "MY OPINION might not be popular", which means my opinion might go against what many other think since most people think that indomie is the best in every type of instant noodles.

For me personally, i love both mie sedaaap and indomie, but tbh, for most variants, including the mie goreng and mie kari, i love mie sedaaap versions wayyyyy more than indomie, which many people will disagree with me, thus my opinion is not popular
@@GecaUniverse yes! Too bad many people feel reluctant to try mie sedaap since they have their eyes set on indomie only already 🥲 mie sedaap deserves more recognition.

Grew up on Maggi ;) South african here, no they should not be broken... oi. plus we always boil it longer. Yop size is normal ;) We use the spice sachets after draining the water ;) with cheese, meat & your fave sauce.
Regarding the Indomie noodles, I do think you may have done the curry one a bit wrong. The directions on the package call for 300 ml (1.27 cup) of water. It looked like you might have had more water than that, which would account for it being so mild in flavor. For the Mi Goreng (the bestselling instant noodle in the world, btw, and one of my ATF instant noodles), what you thought might be nuts was actually fried shallots, and the ‘paste’ was kecap manis, or Indonesian sweet soy sauce. The MAMA pork flavor noodle are also great, and if I recall correctly, are coated in some kind of seasoning even without the packets, and so are very tasty as a dry snack or in a salad. Have you had the Sapporo Ichiban Tonkotsu flavor? In my opinion the best Japanese instant Ramen ever, (of the ones I have tried). Also, if anyone out there is like me, who frequently eats two packets at a time, but only uses the seasons packets from one of them (so I can add my own flavorings, ingredients, and condiments), Ottogi sells plain noodles without seasoning. Great if you want to flavor your noodles from scratch, or if you end up with a drawer full of unused seasoning packets. Those noodles also have above average thickness and texture (as do the noodles from Samyang, in my experience) I have heard good things about the Paldo brand’s noodle texture, but I don’t think I’ve ever tried them.
Tbh the reason why many ppl worldwide eat Korean ramen is not bc of the taste but bc of the influence of Korean pop culture. They buy anything they on the screen.
As an indian the maggi pack you bought was family pack. And the parts are serving based. So that 1 block is 1 part which requires 1 taste maker. I personally prefer atta noodles over this one as atta one comes with veggies in the taste maker while for this you need to add veggies and boil it or fry it to make it according to your liking else its really plain
As an arab, indomie is the best and the most spread noodles in arabic countries, everyone loves it and for many people it is eaten literally once a week as a main meal, I travel to saudi for studying and because I can't cook I used to eat it a lot 😂, I know its kinda of not healthy but I became obsessed with it
Indomie Mi Goreng is such a good snack ramen (a little small to be an actual meal). They have a Spicy Mi Goreng flavor one too (which is also great when you want just a bit more spiciness). I'm not as much of a fan of the soupy Indomie noodles tho. The Mama Shrimp Tom Yum is really good, tho I just cook them in the pot instead of doing it cup noodle style. If you're up for doing another round of non-Korean ramens, I'd suggest trying some of the following: Nissin RAOH Ramen Noodle Soup - Tonkotsu flavor is the instant ramen I go for if I want something closer to real Japanese ramen than most instant noodles (soy sauce flavor is also good, but tonkotsu is the better of the two). Prima Taste Singapore Laksa La Mian and Singapore Curry La Mian are both really good. Dressed up with some shrimp and some leafy veg, I honestly wouldn't be disappointed to get either in a restaurant (well, if I didn't know that this brand of instant noodles existed at least). Finally there's a Taiwanese brand A-SHA that has been making great noodles for awhile, but some of their previous flavoring packets were a bit mild and definitely needed jazzing up with a chili crisp (eg Lao Gan Ma), but the A-SHA Meteor Noodle with Danzai Sauce is actually quite good as is. Their noodles do have a really nice texture to them, with a bouncy/chewy "Q" texture when cooked -- perhaps because they're air-dried rather than deep-fried? A-SHA does also make the noodles for the (quite pricey) Momofuku noodles (and I'm guessing also the Trader Joe's Squiggly Knife Cut Noodles). (Both the Momofuku and TJ's noodles are good, but definitely benefit from a good chili crisp -- and both the Momofuku chili crisp and the TJ's Crunchy Chili Onion are good -- tho I personally default to Lau Gan Ma most of the time. The TJ's Crunchy Chili Onion is great for people who can't take handle much spice tho -- it is way milder but still has a nice flavor). Perhaps worth doing a 2nd round with some of these (and perhaps the Indomie Spicy Mi Goreng since the regular Mi Goreng was such a hit for both you and your audience)
If you can get it, indomie has an array of localized flavours. Like for a dish called soto they have 4-5 variants, my favorite was soto banjar limau kulit. It's very rich & flavorful compared to the basic soto mie
i’m a filipino muslim, and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE mi goreng and indomie more than pancit canton. the texture of the noodles is so satisfying on my tongue, the added flavor is incredibly delicious, and of course, the best part is the halal certified logo!!! i can enjoy noodles without worrying about any haram ingredients. In Shaa Allah i can visit indonesia and malaysia, i love both of these countries! 🤍
In Bangladesh and India, the Maggies are always packed separately, but for some reason they don't do it for the international ones. And the 2 minutes is actually a marketing strategy, telling people that they can have it within only 2 minutes, but we always, I mean everyone eats it beyond the al dente point
I don't have any idea about Bangladesh but if you go to Indian supermarket than you'll find the bigger size of maggi also.. Yesterday I bought it the family pack maggi.
As Arab i eat Indomie like 4 times a week and i have like 7 recipes for it and crave each one depending on my mood soupy, creamy , fried with veggies and the normal one it my go to dinner most of the time
Indonesian here! In case you’re looking for the taste of Indian curry spice in the indomie chicken curry, yes, you won’t find it. Indonesia has our version of curry that is different from Indian and Japanese curry. Ours is chicken broth (soup-like consistency) mixed with coconut milk and spices. It is quite mild in comparison to the thick and rich Indian curry. you are spot on for saying it tastes like chicken noodle soup because mostly it is based on chicken broth.
As an Indonesian, Indomie is not just a favorite but also food of life in here in our country. If a kid is hurrying to school, our mothers can just make Indomie goreng, put it in the lunchbox with rice, fry some eggs or sausages or chicken nuggets and you're good to go!
As Thai ppl grew up with MAMA , I would recommend you to put MAMA in to pot , stir it and then add egg to mix well together. Wait until noodle becomes soft. Enjoy !
As an Indian who grew up eating Maggi, we always spiced it up because it was always a bit mild for us. So my mum would chop up onion and garlic and saute them in oil, my mum use to put a lot of veggies, like diced tomatoes, peas, capsicum and then sauce them real good, add the sachet , I personally like to add one finely chopped chilli in it and then add 1 cup water and then the noodles and let it cook. This version definitely takes a good amount of time but it was a comfort food for us.
Congratulations on rediscovering the noodles you had at your friend house! Having memories like that can be so frustrating. It feels like having a word forever stuck at the tip of your tongue, without ever being able to actually say it. There was as an 80’s song by an Italian singer I remembered hearing as kid, but I could not remember the name of either the song or the singer. All I had was a vague feeling of a sound I couldn’t even fully remember. Its wasn’t until some years after the internet became ubiquitous, maybe about 20 years ago, that I finally figured out who she was, and ended up downloading several of her albums.
I grew up with Maggie noodles in Australia. It’s one of our top favorite brands. Depending on the flavour you get though you get the different packaging. The pack you got is usually found in the Indian section of our Asia isle but then we have more basic flavours in more individual packaging in the more basic isle. We have chicken, beef, oriental, etc in the basic isle. I LOVE indomie noodles. Especially the Mi Goreng.
Grew up on Mama noodles and my mom would always prepare the noodles in a pot on the stove! Our addition was always cut up hotdogs and an egg. If we had to do the pour-over style, we would microwave for a few minutes to cook the noodles further. So yummy!
Same here. I don’t eat it much anymore but I have a case of it in the house for those days when I don’t have time to cook but want something tasty and comforting. My addition is an egg, fish cake /fish ball and a bit of whatever green leaf veggie I have.
American here... I gravitate toward the Korean ramens with my favorite flavors being kimchi or cuttlefish. However I also happen to love Indomie Tom Yum as well as Sambal Rica Rica with extra sambal. My son's favorite is Maruchan Cheddar... with extra cheddar. I take mine with a bit of fresh salsa and shrimp and a fair amount of chipotle hot sauce.
Bangladeshi here. Mama is one of the most popular noodles in my country. I usually put the tastemaker into the water first and then add the noodles when the water starts boiling. Makes a huge difference for me.
Commonly we add hot water to our indomie last to avoid too much water on its soup. For best taste, use another hot water, not hot water from your noodle. So you can taste the spice better. Probably works on other ramen too..
Pancit Canton's flavor mix doesn't need to be mixed while in the bowl. It is best to mix by the time you'll add the cooked noodles. That way the flavor will be much more intensely good. Also Indomie Noodles doesn't have to have too much water, it is always prefered to have very little amount of water but for me I prefer it with no water, the taste would even make it better.
Indian here! I love having Maggi, usually i scramble it with egg and use a bunch of sirhacha. Its so delicious, perfect for a rainy day. You bought a multipack, and its not supposed to be broken up like that. I remember my siblings and I would have competitions eating Maggi without any water because we thought it was so spicy back then but now I have to add more spice to it
I grew up on Mama. In fact in Myanmar we use the name Mama to refer to any packaged instant ramen style noodle. I know it’s not the best noodle in the world but I do like their flavors. The tom yum version is the flavor of my childhood. It make a really good stir fry with shrimp.
Indomie lifehack : If you buy Indomie (like the curry one), buy for the Indonesian market/south east asian market. Since most of other regions doesn't like stronger taste like us. Like in some flavor, Indomie (with the same flavor) for western and middle eastern market seasoning is different and in some case milder too. Even Indomie goreng in Indonesia itself have different seasoning in some Indonesian region. 😂 And if you buy the non-southeast asian market, try to put less soup on it.
I'm German and I also grew up on Maggi, just in Germany they are popular for other products😉 Before becoming addicted to Korean ramen, I was a huge fan of MAMA ramen! So yummy and I still love them❤
Fun fact about Mama Thai mee: you can actually just put their condiments/flavours and then shake them even, then eat them raw! It gets a whole new flavour and taste that you won't get from any other instant ramen brands 😁😁😁. You may taste similar food from Malaysia's Mamee ( it's like instant ramen snacks with condiments 😁)
Thailand has several large ramen brands (Yumyum, WaiWai and a bunch of others) but MAMA is iconic. We dont say 'Do you want instant ramen' ~ it's always 'Do you want MAMA' even if it is a different brand. Perhaps its cause 'Bamee Gung' is too long to day but MAMA is basically the colloqial word for instant noodles. There are so many MAMA flavours ranging from local Thai dishes, to Korean, to Japanese to whatever western fusion dish. I must say that MAMA noodles must be eaten freshly cooked before they absorb too much water unlike Korean ramyeons which I find are better when cooked a little longer.
Yea and if you like TomYum flavor you should buy either Mama or Yumyum they are really good. But I prefer Yumyum’s noodle since they’re more chewy and not as soggy as Mama’s after left in the broth for too long. Waiwai’s noodles are a bit hard and brittle compared to the rest also a little saltier but that made are great in spicy salad.
I live in Asia and I remember eating Shin Ramyun when I was 14 and I was like THIS WAS SO SPICY AND GOOD! After trying so many instant noodles from different countries, I have to say that Korean ones are the best! The noodles are springy and super thick!
1:10 thats so sweet of you. people should try new things from other countries. maggi noodles from india but i wanna try korean noodles for obvious reasons 🖤💕
Grew up eating maggi as well hehe. After two decades of experimentation with it, I think the best way to eat it is: fry some chopped onions with salt and pepper in mustard oil, add some chopped tomatoes and fry slightly and then mash the tomatoes with spoon, scramble eggs, add water (1.5 cups? 2 cups? I like it soupy too!), add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, pepper, put the maggi in, let it boil, garnish with chopped green chillis and butter. (If you feel lazy then you can simply boil water with sliced green chilli, pepper, chilli powder and turmeric and then add the noodles and maggi masala, garnish with butter)
Filipina here. We also have soupy ramens. I don't love nor hate it. I think I just eat it for nostalgia, because I use to eat it a lot as an after school snack when I was a kid. I would cook the LuckyMe beef flavor. I add egg and calamansi. And yes i eat it with rice!😅
Trick to make maggi in 2 mins. the water should be BOILING like EXTREMELY BOILING HOT. A good way to determine if it's that hot is to put some seasoning and if reacts violently it means you are at the right level. That's when you add the noodles and exactly at 2 mins turn off the stove. Leave it to cool down for a minute and you have 2 minute maggi.
Indonesian here! My top tips (tested & true) in cooking THE Indomie goreng is: 1. To mix up all the seasonings beforehand on your plate/bowl (do not add them after the noodles) 2. Boil your water until it’s really boiling and then put your noodles and wait only for 1 min 10 secs max 1 min 15 secs if you like your noodles al dente like I do. Use a strainer to drain it. Trust me guys, the key for the explosive flavour is actually lies in how long you cook the noodle because if you cook longer than that the noodles can get pretty soggy & make the taste gets bland. If any of you read this comment & try it, please do let me know what you think 🥹🫶🏻
Hi speaking of Pancit Canton, you should have try the SWEET AND SPICY flavor because it's similar to korean noodles. Many Koreans loves it than calamansi. I saw many Koreans don't like citrus flavor. Give a try the SWEET AND SPICY flavor please 🥺
my heart dropped when you pour tons of water on that indomie curry. even i wont put that much water for 2 packs of local indomie (which had more sodium than the exported one)
I’ve lived all over the world and have had all kinds of foods. Asian food has always my favorite. Now when it comes to ramen noodles, Shin Ramen will always be my favorite.
About indomie chicken curry, first you put too much water on single serve of that, second we often use separate boiled water from the one that u use to cook it, hope u enjoy the 2nd try better
14:24 the best hangover food. Two pack of Indomie with poach egg, corned beef/sausage/spam and little bit of veggie. Cheap and fulfilling meal for drunk people. I wish there is a collab between Nongshim and Indofood for making a soup base ramen with Indofood seasoning and Nongshim noodle. Would be great product.
YUM! In Singapore, some of the most popular instant noodles are Maggi Curry (different from the Indian one), Prima Taste Laksa and Myojo Mee Pok(dry). If you can get them over there I definitely recommend you try them out!
Yaaa the maggi one is supposed to be like that...(broken) one piece one serving and for one serving one packet of masala (the tiny silver pacs) And its not 2 min recipe.... we add water and maggi first, after the noodles is boiled we add the masala powder, then mix and eat it....
@tressuni Maggies are generally not like other ramen. It comes in square/rectangle pieces. Since we Indians love spice a lot(at least me personally) How I generally eat Maggie is, cut some slices of panner into small square cubes, then pour oil in a pan, heat it up, then add mustard seeds to it(All while keeping the flames at medium as you dont want the mustard seeds to burn(they become bitter), then I personally add 2 huge tea spoons of Chilli powder, one tea spoon of turmeric, and one tea spoon of salt. Next, I mix it properly and then add water to it(2 pieces - 2.5 cups of water) and then add the same no of Maggie powder in the packet given for each piece. Then, I stir it well so that the spice is evenly distributed. Then I add the panner to it and the Maggie pieces. I cover the pan and let it cook for 4-5 minutes. This recipe is sooo good, ngl.
Indomie recipe: 1.boil the water 2.when the water boil put the noodles in 3.than put the seasoning when the noodles are ready 4.put them on low temperature and wait and it will give u the best taste 5.if u have curry powder put small spoon of Curry powder and wait it's so delicious

Indonesian here, the curry in Indonesia is different from curry from Japan or India. In Indonesia Curry mostly protein stew in Coconut milk, that's why it's different and light
hey! Indian here, usually we built the water add the spices and then the noodles. Yes the noodles is the correct size and then u can add anything u want! Hope u enjoy
Indian here, we grew up with Maggi. We cook it with vegatables, eggs etc. Sometime we also fry it. Also garnish it with cheese or butter, it tastes awesome. Btw there are some Indian noodle brand you can try 1. Sunfeast Yippie 2. Ching's 3. Top Ramen

I don't have any idea about Bangladesh but if you go to Indian supermarket than you'll find the bigger size of maggi also.. Yesterday I bought it the family pack maggi.
In india people here mostly buy bigger one which has 8 piece.
isn't mama noodles bangladeshi? in this video here i looking mama noodles that's why im asking
As Arab i eat Indomie like 4 times a week and i have like 7 recipes for it and crave each one depending on my mood soupy, creamy , fried with veggies and the normal one it my go to dinner most of the time
Indonesian here! In case you’re looking for the taste of Indian curry spice in the indomie chicken curry, yes, you won’t find it.
Indonesia has our version of curry that is different from Indian and Japanese curry.
Ours is chicken broth (soup-like consistency) mixed with coconut milk and spices. It is quite mild in comparison to the thick and rich Indian curry.
you are spot on for saying it tastes like chicken noodle soup because mostly it is based on chicken broth.
MAMA noodle is great. Add an egg and some veggies in then boil it instead of just pour hot water in. Delicious!
MAMA is my absolute favvvv the shrimp one is amazing
As an Indonesian, Indomie is not just a favorite but also food of life in here in our country. If a kid is hurrying to school, our mothers can just make Indomie goreng, put it in the lunchbox with rice, fry some eggs or sausages or chicken nuggets and you're good to go!
Indomie is the famous brand in the Arab world
We don't say noodles
We say indomie
yes
i was to say that
As Thai ppl grew up with MAMA , I would recommend you to put MAMA in to pot , stir it and then add egg to mix well together. Wait until noodle becomes soft. Enjoy !
I actually noticed the hair straight away and was in love with it. It suits you so well and is adorable!
Missed this comment but thank you it made my day 🥲
13:24 one tip if you want to do Indomie soup noodle, only put a small amount of water if you want to get little bit stronger taste
😅 yeah , she put the water to much
if you have time, try adding cilantro, lime, and a crispy fried egg to indomie mi goreng. tis 🔥🔥🔥
I’m salivating
I personally never liked egg in noodles bcz it will smell like egg but in indoomie i love it
@@tressuniU have to
As an Indian who grew up eating Maggi, we always spiced it up because it was always a bit mild for us. So my mum would chop up onion and garlic and saute them in oil, my mum use to put a lot of veggies, like diced tomatoes, peas, capsicum and then sauce them real good, add the sachet , I personally like to add one finely chopped chilli in it and then add 1 cup water and then the noodles and let it cook. This version definitely takes a good amount of time but it was a comfort food for us.
In my region when in maggi we put saute veggies it is known as tadka maggi 😁
Congratulations on rediscovering the noodles you had at your friend house! Having memories like that can be so frustrating. It feels like having a word forever stuck at the tip of your tongue, without ever being able to actually say it. There was as an 80’s song by an Italian singer I remembered hearing as kid, but I could not remember the name of either the song or the singer. All I had was a vague feeling of a sound I couldn’t even fully remember. Its wasn’t until some years after the internet became ubiquitous, maybe about 20 years ago, that I finally figured out who she was, and ended up downloading several of her albums.
I grew up with Maggie noodles in Australia. It’s one of our top favorite brands.
Depending on the flavour you get though you get the different packaging.
The pack you got is usually found in the Indian section of our Asia isle but then we have more basic flavours in more individual packaging in the more basic isle. We have chicken, beef, oriental, etc in the basic isle.
I LOVE indomie noodles. Especially the Mi Goreng.
I'm Thai but i LOVE LOVE indomie it my fav and I bought it all the time 🤣❤️
Thanks bro,
It's the best
Excuse me, are you an EXO-L?
Fake Thai ????
Filipino here dropping by to say, INDOMIE IS KING ❤ 🇮🇩
Thanks you bro
But what about lucky me?
@@DCL2988 it's got its charms but the one featured here ain't the best. And honestly yearly the quality and quantity downgrades. Tsk tsk
Yeah plus the fact that it is easily accessible in grocery stores and is just affordable as lucky me makes it a better pick
Uroorrr 😂baklangkupal
Lucky noodles pancit Canton
Kame Ikaw lang nasarapan sa indianmie Este indogmie 🤣
Grew up on Mama noodles and my mom would always prepare the noodles in a pot on the stove! Our addition was always cut up hotdogs and an egg. If we had to do the pour-over style, we would microwave for a few minutes to cook the noodles further. So yummy!
Same here. I don’t eat it much anymore but I have a case of it in the house for those days when I don’t have time to cook but want something tasty and comforting. My addition is an egg, fish cake /fish ball and a bit of whatever green leaf veggie I have.
American here... I gravitate toward the Korean ramens with my favorite flavors being kimchi or cuttlefish. However I also happen to love Indomie Tom Yum as well as Sambal Rica Rica with extra sambal.
My son's favorite is Maruchan Cheddar... with extra cheddar. I take mine with a bit of fresh salsa and shrimp and a fair amount of chipotle hot sauce.
I hate Indomie… It’s like that one ex I can’t quit, every time I think I’m done, I smell it, and boom, we’re back together. 🍜 😍
🤣
Bangladeshi here. Mama is one of the most popular noodles in my country. I usually put the tastemaker into the water first and then add the noodles when the water starts boiling. Makes a huge difference for me.
Commonly we add hot water to our indomie last to avoid too much water on its soup. For best taste, use another hot water, not hot water from your noodle. So you can taste the spice better. Probably works on other ramen too..
10:52 they are never done in 2 mins 🫠 u need to cook for more couple of mins🙂
Indomie still the best ramen ever
cheap also tasty
Pancit Canton's flavor mix doesn't need to be mixed while in the bowl. It is best to mix by the time you'll add the cooked noodles. That way the flavor will be much more intensely good. Also Indomie Noodles doesn't have to have too much water, it is always prefered to have very little amount of water but for me I prefer it with no water, the taste would even make it better.
yeaaa my fav non korean ramen is indomie. and my fav korean ramen is neoguri
Who is here after maggi on thumbnail 😂😂😂
Indian here! I love having Maggi, usually i scramble it with egg and use a bunch of sirhacha. Its so delicious, perfect for a rainy day. You bought a multipack, and its not supposed to be broken up like that. I remember my siblings and I would have competitions eating Maggi without any water because we thought it was so spicy back then but now I have to add more spice to it
Yea I realized after this video that I probably bought the multipack but didn’t realize bc that’s the only one the store had!
what brand Sriracha would you recommend? I've been searching for a good one online but don't know which one to pick
@@nuzaarfatima1326 the original one with the rooster on it. I've tried other brands and they are always too sweet for me
@@sufiahussain811That one is the best yes but I kinda liked cremica one too because rooster one gets more on expensive side.
U eat Maggi with egg. That's blasphemy bro 😢
I grew up on Mama. In fact in Myanmar we use the name Mama to refer to any packaged instant ramen style noodle. I know it’s not the best noodle in the world but I do like their flavors. The tom yum version is the flavor of my childhood. It make a really good stir fry with shrimp.
My favorite Indonesian noodle brand is Bihunku OMG THAT'S SO GOOOOD now I'm craving 😂❤
Indomie lifehack :
If you buy Indomie (like the curry one), buy for the Indonesian market/south east asian market. Since most of other regions doesn't like stronger taste like us. Like in some flavor, Indomie (with the same flavor) for western and middle eastern market seasoning is different and in some case milder too.
Even Indomie goreng in Indonesia itself have different seasoning in some Indonesian region. 😂
And if you buy the non-southeast asian market, try to put less soup on it.
Pancit Canton, Maggi and Lucky Me my favorites ❤
From the ones you've tried, I personally loved the Indomie Mi Goreng and Lucky Me Pancit Canton. 🥰🥰
Indomie costs only two cents, there is no competition for such a cheap price with a taste that will not disappoint.
I'm German and I also grew up on Maggi, just in Germany they are popular for other products😉
Before becoming addicted to Korean ramen, I was a huge fan of MAMA ramen! So yummy and I still love them❤
Fun fact about Mama Thai mee: you can actually just put their condiments/flavours and then shake them even, then eat them raw! It gets a whole new flavour and taste that you won't get from any other instant ramen brands 😁😁😁. You may taste similar food from Malaysia's Mamee ( it's like instant ramen snacks with condiments 😁)
Omg I forgot about that!! That was like our potato chips as a kid!!!
Tried so many instant noodle brands in the world..but Indomie Mie Goreng is my all time favorite
Thailand has several large ramen brands (Yumyum, WaiWai and a bunch of others) but MAMA is iconic. We dont say 'Do you want instant ramen' ~ it's always 'Do you want MAMA' even if it is a different brand. Perhaps its cause 'Bamee Gung' is too long to day but MAMA is basically the colloqial word for instant noodles.
There are so many MAMA flavours ranging from local Thai dishes, to Korean, to Japanese to whatever western fusion dish.
I must say that MAMA noodles must be eaten freshly cooked before they absorb too much water unlike Korean ramyeons which I find are better when cooked a little longer.
Yea and if you like TomYum flavor you should buy either Mama or Yumyum they are really good. But I prefer Yumyum’s noodle since they’re more chewy and not as soggy as Mama’s after left in the broth for too long.
Waiwai’s noodles are a bit hard and brittle compared to the rest also a little saltier but that made are great in spicy salad.
Girll migorent indoomie is my WHOLE childhood!!! And if you can then do try knorr noodles
I live in Asia and I remember eating Shin Ramyun when I was 14 and I was like THIS WAS SO SPICY AND GOOD! After trying so many instant noodles from different countries, I have to say that Korean ones are the best! The noodles are springy and super thick!
1:10 thats so sweet of you. people should try new things from other countries. maggi noodles from india but i wanna try korean noodles for obvious reasons 🖤💕
Maggi actually originated from Switzerland
1:46 Your hair is super cute!
Yay! Thank you
Grew up eating maggi as well hehe. After two decades of experimentation with it, I think the best way to eat it is: fry some chopped onions with salt and pepper in mustard oil, add some chopped tomatoes and fry slightly and then mash the tomatoes with spoon, scramble eggs, add water (1.5 cups? 2 cups? I like it soupy too!), add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, pepper, put the maggi in, let it boil, garnish with chopped green chillis and butter. (If you feel lazy then you can simply boil water with sliced green chilli, pepper, chilli powder and turmeric and then add the noodles and maggi masala, garnish with butter)
The Maggi brand comes from Switzerland but the noodle products themselves originated independently in India and Malaysia, respectively.
Filipina here. We also have soupy ramens. I don't love nor hate it. I think I just eat it for nostalgia, because I use to eat it a lot as an after school snack when I was a kid. I would cook the LuckyMe beef flavor. I add egg and calamansi. And yes i eat it with rice!😅
for the soup indomie, the lesser the water the more impactful the taste
Trick to make maggi in 2 mins.
the water should be BOILING like EXTREMELY BOILING HOT. A good way to determine if it's that hot is to put some seasoning and if reacts violently it means you are at the right level. That's when you add the noodles and exactly at 2 mins turn off the stove. Leave it to cool down for a minute and you have 2 minute maggi.
Indonesian here! My top tips (tested & true) in cooking THE Indomie goreng is:
1. To mix up all the seasonings beforehand on your plate/bowl (do not add them after the noodles)
2. Boil your water until it’s really boiling and then put your noodles and wait only for 1 min 10 secs max 1 min 15 secs if you like your noodles al dente like I do. Use a strainer to drain it.
Trust me guys, the key for the explosive flavour is actually lies in how long you cook the noodle because if you cook longer than that the noodles can get pretty soggy & make the taste gets bland.
If any of you read this comment & try it, please do let me know what you think 🥹🫶🏻
Looks so delicious 😢❤
Hi speaking of Pancit Canton, you should have try the SWEET AND SPICY flavor because it's similar to korean noodles. Many Koreans loves it than calamansi. I saw many Koreans don't like citrus flavor. Give a try the SWEET AND SPICY flavor please 🥺
yes! i preferred the sweet and spicy than the green one when my filipino friend let me try 🥰
As a Thai, MAMA Thai brand has a lots of favours, light soup and creamy soup. But original taste is cool. It's Moosup favour with Yellow package.
my heart dropped when you pour tons of water on that indomie curry. even i wont put that much water for 2 packs of local indomie (which had more sodium than the exported one)
I’ve lived all over the world and have had all kinds of foods. Asian food has always my favorite. Now when it comes to ramen noodles, Shin Ramen will always be my favorite.
About indomie chicken curry, first you put too much water on single serve of that, second we often use separate boiled water from the one that u use to cook it, hope u enjoy the 2nd try better
14:24 the best hangover food. Two pack of Indomie with poach egg, corned beef/sausage/spam and little bit of veggie. Cheap and fulfilling meal for drunk people.
I wish there is a collab between Nongshim and Indofood for making a soup base ramen with Indofood seasoning and Nongshim noodle. Would be great product.
The best is:
1. Mie Tasty beef Yakiniku Fried or gravy
2. Mie Tasty Chiken teriyaki fried or gravy
3. Mie Tasty Crushed chicken with raw chili sauce fried or gravy
4. Indomie Skipjack tuna soup
5. Indomie Fried spicy skipjack tuna
6. ABC noodles tomato soup
7. ABC noddles Spicy chicken curry
8. Indomie Chicken curry
9. Indomie Fried noodles
10. Sedap noodles Fried noodles
11. Indomie chiken soup
12. Indomie rendang
13. Indomie Fried spicy
maggie can be used as a base and so many other stuff can be added after
Whos eating indomie while watching this 😅
as a Thailand person I grew up with the brand mama it is amazing
YUM! In Singapore, some of the most popular instant noodles are Maggi Curry (different from the Indian one), Prima Taste Laksa and Myojo Mee Pok(dry). If you can get them over there I definitely recommend you try them out!
Indomie is the most popular in Singapore
Indonesian brand laksa
Yaaa the maggi one is supposed to be like that...(broken) one piece one serving and for one serving one packet of masala (the tiny silver pacs)
And its not 2 min recipe.... we add water and maggi first, after the noodles is boiled we add the masala powder, then mix and eat it....
The indomie soup taste mild because the water is too much :’)
@tressuni Maggies are generally not like other ramen. It comes in square/rectangle pieces. Since we Indians love spice a lot(at least me personally) How I generally eat Maggie is, cut some slices of panner into small square cubes, then pour oil in a pan, heat it up, then add mustard seeds to it(All while keeping the flames at medium as you dont want the mustard seeds to burn(they become bitter), then I personally add 2 huge tea spoons of Chilli powder, one tea spoon of turmeric, and one tea spoon of salt.
Next, I mix it properly and then add water to it(2 pieces - 2.5 cups of water) and then add the same no of Maggie powder in the packet given for each piece. Then, I stir it well so that the spice is evenly distributed. Then I add the panner to it and the Maggie pieces. I cover the pan and let it cook for 4-5 minutes.
This recipe is sooo good, ngl.
Indomie hack everybody must try : put the dry season the last, little by little, it Will be more delicious ❤
Indomie recipe:
1.boil the water
2.when the water boil put the noodles in
3.than put the seasoning when the noodles are ready
4.put them on low temperature and wait and it will give u the best taste
5.if u have curry powder put small spoon of Curry powder and wait it's so delicious
My go to Lucky Me Pancit Canton is Sweet and Spicy (which is i think suits Korean pallete)
First time watching your video , good editing & music choices very cozy setup & specific reviewing in your own way over all very entertaining Video & content..love to see more 👍🏾
12:58 too much water
Indonesian here, the curry in Indonesia is different from curry from Japan or India. In Indonesia Curry mostly protein stew in Coconut milk, that's why it's different and light
🎼INDOOOMIE🎶SEEELEEERAAA🎵KUUU

Truth Indians ❤ maggie 9:06
hey! Indian here, usually we built the water add the spices and then the noodles. Yes the noodles is the correct size and then u can add anything u want! Hope u enjoy
13:55 "Curry" is not a favour/ingredient when used by non-American / non-Western people, perhaps that's why you expected something else.
Haven't watched the whole video BUT i LOVEEE her hairstyle!!!
9:20 We have Maggi in Nigeria 🇳🇬 but they are Seasoning cubes not Noodles 🍜 this is interesting 😮
Love from India ❤ my Nigerian sister
Yes ooo
My personal favorite non-Korean ramen is Oyakata, the original flavor, the sauce is so good
Anywy for the chicken curry indomie u shouldn’t add too much water in it because it becomes too light
Indian here, we grew up with Maggi. We cook it with vegatables, eggs etc. Sometime we also fry it. Also garnish it with cheese or butter, it tastes awesome. Btw there are some Indian noodle brand you can try
1. Sunfeast Yippie
2. Ching's
3. Top Ramen
Also you must try from Indonesia... soto flavor ❤
2:48 Whoever said to you that the Lucky Me Pancit Calamansi flavor is the best one was lying through their teeth lol
Sweet and Spicy supremacy!
Filipino here and I don’t like pancit canton since when they rebranded. I love indomie more cos of the flavors and also shin ramen
