Steps

1

Prepare Onions

Peel the onions and slice them into thin half-rings. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

2

Caramelize Onions

Add the sliced onions to the hot oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook over low to medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 15-20 minutes, until they are golden brown, caramelized, and soft. Remove from heat and set aside.

3

Cook Sausages

Meanwhile, bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Once boiling, add the hot dog sausages and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. Alternatively, you can pan-fry or grill them.

4

Assemble and Serve

Warm the hot dog buns to your liking. Place a hot dog sausage in each bun, then generously top with the caramelized onions. Finish with a drizzle of ketchup and mustard. Serve immediately!

Extra Tips

Don't rush the onions; let them caramelize slowly for a truly sweet and flavorful result.

If you like a spicy kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the onions while frying.

Warm the buns in the oven or microwave before serving for an even more delicious hot dog.
