or skip the garam masala. For extra heat, add chili flakes or green chilies.
• Creamy Texture Tip: For a richer flavor, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a spoonful of butter at the end for extra creaminess.
• Make it Healthier: Use whole wheat Maggi or millet-based noodles for a healthier version. You can also add veggies like bell peppers, peas, or carrots for extra nutrition.
• Cashew Alternative: If you don’t have cashews, you can use almonds or 1 tbsp of fresh cream for a similar creamy texture.
• Cheese Lovers: Adding grated cheese or a cheese slice while cooking will make it extra creamy and cheesy.
• Tandoori Flavor Twist: Add a little smoked paprika or roast some Kasuri methi for a smoky tandoori-style flavor.
• Serving Suggestion: Pair it with garlic bread, toasted pav, or a side of crispy papad for a complete meal.
