Method

Hot Dog Preparation

  1. 1

    Boil or Grill the Hot Dogs

    In a pot, bring water to a boil or preheat your grill. Place the hot dog sausages in the boiling water for about 5-7 minutes or grill them for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until heated through.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Buns

    While the hot dogs are cooking, slice the hot dog buns open without cutting all the way through. You can also toast the buns on the grill or in a toaster for a crispy texture.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Hot Dogs

    Once the hot dogs are cooked, place each sausage into a bun. Top with your choice of ketchup, mustard, relish, diced onions, and shredded cheese.

French Fries Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Fries

    Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Toss the French fries in a bowl with olive oil and salt until evenly coated.

  2. 5

    Bake the Fries

    Spread the fries in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Once the fries are ready, remove from the oven and serve alongside your hot dogs.
