My initial impression of this Indomie Curry ramen is that it seems to have a lot of liquid; the instructions called for 300ml of water. Maybe adding another minute to the cooking time would help the noodles soak some of that up. You can definitely pick up a curry aroma, but surprisingly, that smell doesn’t translate into much actual flavor in the broth itself.
Produced in Egypt.

Given how much liquid there is, and the fact that this Indomie Curry Instant Noodles was produced in Egypt, I’m wondering if the formulation or flavor profile might be different from other Indomie curry versions produced in other countries.
For a cooking suggestion, 100ml less water might have resulted in a more concentrated flavor. It also seemed like the seasoning package was a bit undersized for the full block of noodles.
To really kick this up, I think some spicy sautéed beef would be a good topping. The savory, slightly charred beef with a bit of heat could add depth and richness to the broth.

Frequently Asked Questions
For the spice level, my friend James, who taste tests the ramens with me, gives his rating out of 5 based on his experience with the heat. My own spice tolerance tends to be higher than most, so James’s rating gives a more general sense of the spiciness. Keep in mind that spice is still subjective, so what’s mild for him might be spicy for you, and vice versa!
That’s how thick or thin the broth is. A 1/5 would be very watery, while a 5/5 would be super thick and almost syrupy.
This is just a general gauge of how thick the noodles are compared to other instant ramen noodles I’ve tried. A 1/5 would be very thin, like vermicelli, and a 5/5 would be very thick and wide.
Here, I’m just describing the style or texture of the noodles, like “udon-like” for a chewy and thick noodle, or “thin and curly” for a more classic instant ramen style.
