It seemed to me like I needed to a new country list, but I wasn’t sure which. I was perusing my big list of reviews and noticed at this point, I’ve reviewed a ton of them from India, and I thought a nice list of my favorites would be good. I really would like to review more, so if you’re reading this and with an Indian manufacturer of instant noodles, I’d love to hear from you – please drop me a line! This is a list of my favorites which is current as of review #3,702. With that, let’s check out the debut of The Ramen Rater’s Top Ten Indian Instant Noodles Of All Time 2021 Edition.

#10: Nissin Top Ramen Masala Noodles
Noodles have this neat filminess and subtle crumble that’s very much the way of Indian instant noodles. The broth ends up more like a gravy. The masala flavor is very good and works well. Original review
#9: 1 To 3 Noodles Chatpat Masala
The noodles were plumper than I expected – was a nice surprise. They ate up almost all the liquid and ended up with a medium chewiness. The flavor was very India – masala and spicy! Decently spicy and very tasty – really liked these. Original review
#8: Maggi Hot Heads Peri Peri Noodles
The noodles are really quite nice – a slight mush to them kind of like a Japanese variety I’ve had with agar agar in them, yet hearty and tasty. The peri peri pepper sauce/soup is pretty good – not too spicy, but definitely, more than a wide swath of people I know could handle. If you like a bit of spicy you should enjoy it. Original review
#7: Sunfeast Yippee! Noodles Magic Masala
The noodle came out very well after the 3 minutes cooking. They have a soft tooth and a familiar gauge that most companies seem to favor. The flavor is quite good. I did expect a stronger masala taste, however it seems paired with a tomato taste. This goes very well. I can tell why the person on YouTube recommended this. Yippee! Original review
#6: Ching’s Secret Hot Garlic Instant Noodles
Starting with the noodles, they’re good – standard instant with nice gauge and a good chew. As for the flavor – if you love garlic, this is definitely for you! Lots of bits of garlic in there and a very strong garlic taste. The hot element isn’t extreme as in their previous version, however it’s very nice with the garlic. Original review
#5: Nissin Top Ramen Atta Noodles Masala
The noodles end up with a satisfying crumble and firmness I’ve come to expect from Indian atta noodles. Likewise, masala is very tasty and the broth reduced to more of a sauce. Original review
#4: Patanjali Atta Noodles Jhatpat Banao Befikr Khao
The noodles were really good – plump with a slight crumble. The taste was like a tasty masala – very hearty and a nice bit of spicy taste. The peas hydrated wonderfully; some of the best hydrated peas I’ve had. Original raeview
#3: Nissin Top Ramen Curry
The noodles are thin and flat with a nice softness. They are slathered in a thick curry gravy which is very tasty – really liked this and didn’t want to put it down. Original review
#2: Nissin Top Ramen Fiery Chilli Noodles
The noodle has a mushiness which is absolutely perfect here – it goes with the broth (referred in the note on the package as gravy). The aroma is reminding me of Mexican food, but the flavor is certainly not. It’s bright and has a neat spiciness to it – not death spicy or in need of an SHU mention, but has a very good blend of savory and spicy. Very happy here. Original review
#1: Maggi 2 Minute Noodles Masala Spicy
First, The noodles are great – they engorge themselves on the broth and end up nice and plump. The broth, almost all of which is sucked up by the noodles, is full of flavor. Indeed a spicy hit – not too hot to put most folks off, and a strong masala taste which gave the dish an earthy and deep flavor. Moreover, this one has a kind of savory depth to it. Finally, it was a surprise how much I enjoy this one! Original review

People have been asking where to get a lot of varieties and so I’ve partnered with Exotic Noods to bring you The Ramen Rater Shop. Here you’ll find an expending variety of instant noodles at a pretty decent price. You’ll be able to try a wide array of varieties and not have to buy a ton of each variety. I really wanted to have a way you could just buy a single pack of two at a time. The same way I do when I visit an Asian grocery.
