Recipe Details: Hot Dogs with Chunky Veggie Sauce

Serving Size: 6 servings

 

Ingredients:

  • Main
    • 6 frank sausages
    • 2 small red capsicums (bell peppers), diced chunky
    • 1 onion, diced chunky
    • 6 hot dog buns
  • Sauce
    • 3 tbsp ketchup
    • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
    • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
    • 2 tbsp rice syrup (or honey for substitution)
    • 2 tbsp water

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Sausages:
    • Boil frank sausages in a pot of water for 5–6 minutes. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Veggies:
    • Heat a pan over medium heat and drizzle with a bit of oil.
    • Add the diced onion and cook until softened and lightly caramelized, about 3–4 minutes.
    • Toss in the diced capsicum (bell pepper) and cook for another 3 minutes until slightly tender.
  3. Make the Sauce:
    • In a small bowl, mix ketchup, oyster sauce, Worcestershire sauce, rice syrup, and water.
    • Pour the sauce into the pan with the veggies and stir well. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes.
  4. Combine Everything:
    • Add the boiled sausages to the pan, coating them in the sauce. Cook for 2 more minutes.
  5. Assemble the Hot Dogs:
    • Place a sausage in each hot dog bun.
    • Spoon the chunky veggie sauce generously over the sausage.
  6. Serve and Enjoy:
    • Serve immediately while warm.

Tips for the Dish

  1. Ingredient Substitutions:
    • For a vegetarian option, swap frank sausages with plant-based sausages.
    • Use honey or maple syrup instead of rice syrup for a slightly different sweetness.
    • Red capsicum (bell peppers) can be replaced with yellow or green for variety in color and taste.
  2. Preparation Tips:
    • Dice the onion and capsicum into chunky pieces for better texture and a rustic appearance.
    • Boil the sausages just until heated through; overboiling can make them rubbery.
  3. Make-Ahead Option:
    • Prepare the veggie sauce in advance and store it in the fridge for up to three days. Warm it up before assembling the hot dogs.
  4. Freezing Instructions:
    • You can freeze the cooked veggie sauce in an airtight container for up to a month. Thaw overnight in the fridge and reheat gently on the stove.
  5. Serving Suggestions:
    • Pair with crispy fries or a fresh green salad for a complete meal.
    • Top with shredded cheese, mustard, or jalapeรฑos for added flavor.
  6. Customization Ideas:
    • Add crushed garlic or a sprinkle of chili flakes to the sauce for a spicy kick.
    • Try whole-grain or brioche buns for a gourmet touch.
