Review summary
Updated on Sep 2026- Flavor: Opinions were split — some loved the bold tikka masala flavor; others found the sauce overpowering, too salty, or too acidic when combined with the yogurt 🌶️.
- Ease of prep: The dish comes together quickly with minimal prep, making it a genuinely fast weeknight meal.
- Suggestions: Skip adding extra salt during cooking, as the tikka masala sauce is already quite salty. Add extra vegetables like bok choy to bulk up the dish and balance the intense sauce.
- Portions: Some felt there wasn't enough sauce to coat the noodles fully, making it feel more like a pasta dish than a proper ramen bowl.
