SWEET & SPICY COKE RAMEN

1 pack Texas Beef Raman (or any beef is best) 1/2 to 3/4 can Coke (not diet) 1 pack Salted Peanuts (crushed) 1 Beef Stick (sliced) (optional)

Cook noodles. Use one of your work boots and concrete floor of your cell to crush the peanuts inside the bag. Set aside about 2/3 of the peanuts and eat the rest while you’re “cooking”. Drain water from noodles, then add seasoning packet and Coke. Add peanuts and optional sliced beef stick or summer sausage. Add more Coke to achieve the right amount of sauce and balanced flavor.

Jailhouse Cooking Hint: to add more flavor and change the texture of Raman noodles, toast them on a plate in the mi- crowave for 30 seconds keeping an eye on them, burn easy. (if 2 part block pull apart into single layer) After toasting soak in hot water and drain as usual.

You can also use the toasted noodles as a cracker for your favorite spread.
