Maggi......and this time its yellow!

given that yellow is in fact its natural colour, i wouldn't be surprised if you weren't surprised. its just a colour after all. but what do you do when you would like to see 'yellow' dance on your tastebuds like sunlight on a river in the dawn (not that many would, but, well, i did)?

you do what i did. chop a small onion and fry it, add a bit of turmeric and a little bit of chilli powder.then add some water and put in a little bit of sweet corn. then make maggi. add a generous amout of butter, and top it all with a little squeeze of lemon. this is what it should look like, or at least this is what it looked like before i devoured it.

and here's how it tasted. not very different from the maggi you have probably tasted. a little spicier, and the corn gives it another, by large neutral, kick.and even though the pungentness of turmeric seemed to give way to the tanginess of lemon, i was glad, not much of a fan of pungentness. one of the reasons i hate raddish. the butter seemed to bring the spice level a little lower, but apart from the slight smoothness it gave, it didn't do much, seeing as my tongue is still burning. in the end its mainly a wrestle between the corn and the noodles. needless to say, both won!

heres what i could have also added; some chopped yellow bell pepper, sauteed,some baby corn, some asefoetida, and maybe some cheese. thats about it, seeing has not every yellow thing goes.

you can try it out too. here's another thing, it goes amazingly well with chai. cheers=)
