In the vast and varied world of stoner cuisine, there's a unique dish that's been making waves among the cannabis-loving community in Africa, especially in Nigeria. It's a dish that combines the comforting familiarity of instant noodles with the mellow magic of cannabis. It's a dish that was born out of a late-night munchie quest and has since become a legend among a group of friends known as the High Five. Welcome to the world of "Canna-dooles"!


The Genesis of Canna-dooles


The story of Canna-dooles begins on a hazy night, under a sky full of stars. The High Five, a group of friends bound by their love for cannabis and culinary adventures, found themselves in the throes of a serious case of the munchies. They craved something that was not just delicious, but also carried that special 'herbal' kick. And so, they embarked on a culinary adventure that led them to create a dish that was not only satisfying but also carried the mellow buzz they craved.


The Magic Ingredient: Cannabis



The secret to Canna-dooles lies in its special ingredient: cannabis. You can use either ground cannabis flower or cannabutter, depending on your preference. If you're new to cooking with cannabis, remember to start with a small amount and adjust according to your tolerance level. The beauty of cannabis is that it's not just about the high; it's also about the unique flavor it brings to the dish. The earthy, slightly bitter taste of cannabis complements the savory flavors of the noodles and vegetables, creating a symphony of flavors that's sure to satisfy any stoner's palate.


The Recipe: A Step-by-Step Guide to Making Canna-dooles

Now, let's get down to the nitty-gritty: how do you make Canna-dooles? *Note that decarboxylation is not required.


Here's a step-by-step guide:


Ingredients

- 2 packs of Indomie noodles ( as many as you can consume )

- 1 tablespoon of cannabutter or a gram of ground cannabis flower

- Mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, bell peppers)

- 2 eggs

- Indomie spice and pepper to taste


Instructions:

1. Boil the Noodles: Start by boiling water in a pot. Once it's boiling, add your Indomie noodles and cook them according to the instructions on the packet. The noodles should be soft but not mushy, as they'll continue to cook when you mix them with the other ingredients.


2. Prepare the Cannabis Infusion: While your noodles are cooking, heat up a pan and add your cannabutter or ground cannabis flower. If you're using ground cannabis, make sure to mix it with some regular butter or oil to help it cook evenly. This step is crucial, as it's where the magic happens. The heat activates the THC in the cannabis, turning it from a non-psychoactive compound into one that can get you high.


3. Cook the Vegetables: Add your mixed vegetables to the pan and sauté them until they're cooked. If you want to add some protein to your Canna-dooles, you can also scramble some eggs in the same pan. The vegetables add a crunch and freshness to the dish, while the eggs provide a rich, creamy texture that complements the noodles perfectly.


4. Combine Everything: Once your noodles are cooked, drain them and add them to the pan with your cannabis-infused vegetables. Mix everything together and season with salt and pepper to taste. This is where the flavors meld together, creating a dish that's greater than the sum of its parts.


5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve your Canna-dooles hot and enjoy the delicious combination of Indomie noodles and cannabis! Whether you're enjoying it alone or sharing it with friends, Canna-dooles is sure to be a hit.


Now that you've mastered the art of making Canna-dooles, let's take a moment to appreciate the rich culinary heritage of African stoner cuisine.
