Raman Noodles with
Peanut Butter Sauce

A spicy peanut butter sauce makes this a light
spaghetti dish that is excellent hot or cold.
This dish can have a fairly salty taste.
Cut back or eliminate the base if you wish.
Pasta with peanut butter sauce is designed
for camp cooking but works just fine at home.

Ingredients:
1/2 pound spaghetti or ramen noodles
4 cups water
3 Tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon oil
2 Tablespoons sunflower seeds
1 Tablespoon dried onion, rehydrated
1/2 Tablespoon powdered bouillon base
3 Tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (optional)
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
1/2 teaspoon spike (optional)
3/4 cup water, or more as needed
3 Tablespoons vinegar
3 Tablespoons soy sauce
3 Tablespoons peanut butter
Sliced green or wild onions, if available

Directions:
Break pasta in half and put into boiling water
to which 1 teaspoons of oil has been added.
Cook until done; drain immediately.
In a fry pan, heat 3 Tablespoons oil
and add the sunflower seeds and rehydrated onions.
Cook and stir over medium heat for 2 minutes.
Add the base with the brown sugar, garlic,
other spices if desired, and 3/4 cup water.
Add the vinegar and soy sauce. Add peanut butter and stir.
Mix sauce and spaghetti, cool quickly, and serve chilled.
If available, sliced green or wild onions as a garnish.
