Apparently, Americans eat about 20 million hot dogs a year. And it’s easy to see why everyone loves them so much: they’re easy to make, they’re filling, and you can top them with pretty much anything. For this Gourmet dog, we decided to use our Fermented Vintage BBQ Sauce called Southern Braai to make a sweet onion relish – it’s the perfect match for the spicy American Smoked Hot Dogs! Top with a drizzle of Jalanasco Fermented Yogurt Sauce and they’re ready to eat.
Ingredients
For the hot dogs:
- 4 hot dog rolls
- 4 American hot dog sausages
- 1 tbsp butter
For the Jalanasco Fermented Yogurt Sauce:
- ¼ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp Jalanasco Fermented Jalapeno Sauce
For the onion relish:
- 1 tbsp butter
- 3 red onions, thinly sliced
- ½ red pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 cup Southern Braai Sauce
-
Salt to taste
Directions
Add 1 tbsp butter to a skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the sausages until they are charred and begin to split. Remove from the pan.
- Lower the heat to medium and add another tablespoon of butter. Add the onions, peppers, and salt and sauté until the onions start to caramelize. Add the Southern Braai Sauce and cook until the sauce thickens.
- For the yogurt sauce: Mix the Greek yogurt with the Jalanasco Fermented Jalapeno Sauce. Pour into a squeeze bottle and set aside.
- Assemble your hot dog: Split the hot dog rolls, add the sausage, and top with the onion relish. Finish off with a drizzle of the Jalanasco Fermented Yogurt Sauce.
Recipe Note
- The onion relish can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- You can also top your hot dogs with extra cheese, sauerkraut, or pickles.
- Feel free to grill your sausages instead of frying them in a skillet. In Africa, they would typically bebraai’d over hot coals or charcoal. You could, of course, steam them
- Not all hot dogs are created equal, and for this recipe, you want the best hot dogs money can buy - don’t skip on quality.
- If you want a more hands-off approach to cooking the hot dogs, you can roast them in the oven. Cook in the oven at 400°F/200°C for about 15 minutes (they will start sizzling when ready).
