How To Ensure That Your Rasam Maggi Doesn’t Turn Soggy?

To ensure that your rasam Maggi doesn’t turn soggy and clumpy, make sure only to boil the noodles to 80 per cent. This is because after you transfer the noodles to the masala mixture, it will absorb the flavours and cook completely in it. Also, make sure to mix the boiled noodles gently in the rasam mixture so that you don’t break the noodles. Let the flavours infuse in the masala mixture and noodles for a delightful blend of tangy flavours.
