The buns are important in that they need to be white bread.
Large Crispy Hot Bread bakery rolls are no good. I don't like most of the canned or packet franks. Woolworths deli
and most butchers have good tasting franks. German Delis have a much
spicer frank, probably not suitable for kids though. The cheese is open
to choice. I usually use Mozarella sliced of the block as the stringy texture really works.
But cheddar is tastier.
Kids love this simple recipe. They reckon they are the world's best hot dogs. Everytime I serve them they have a saying they got from a Kids show called Drake and Josh. Done with a over the top English accent. "Perry, Perry, can I have some mustard on my wiener, Perry" Makes me laugh everytime.
Quite often I prepare the ingredients and take a thermos of boiling water and a saucepan to the park and use the electric BBQ. Put the saucepan on the hot plate and add the water and franks, heat the buns in foil directly on the hotplate turning regularly, fry up the onions. A quick fire outing with 10 minutes preparation.
Ingredients
6 Tip Top hot dog buns
6 Hot dog franks (Woolworths)
2 White onions
4 Cheese slices
Salted butter at room temperature
Heinz Big Red Tomato sauce
Heinz Mustard sauce
Method::
In a large enough saucepan put the franks into cold water.
Slowly bring to hot. Never allow to boil. Gently heat for up to 1 hour. 80° is good. The longer you heat the franks the juicier they become.
Cut the buns and wrap loosely in foil. Heat in a low to moderate oven for 15 mins. Put at least 4 ice cubes into the oven to provide steam while heating the buns.
Slice up the onions and then fry in the butter till just charred. Cut the cheese slice in half so it fits in the bun.
Remove the buns from the foil and put a lashing of butter into the bun and insert the frank.
Garnish: On the bottom side of the frank add onions and on the top side add cheese. Cover the frank from side to side with a squeeze of Mustard sauce and fill the gaps with tomato sauce.
People like to be outragious with hot dogs. Lots of toppings. A Chilli Dog is topped with a hot chilli con carne. Relish and pickles are good. Bacon, corn, carrots, fries, onion rings, olives, sour cream, mayo, spinach, tomatoes, coleslaw, gaucamole, mac and cheese, etc and so on.
