Method

Hot Dogs Preparation

  1. 1

    Cook the Hot Dogs

    In a pot of boiling water, add the hot dogs and cook for about 5-7 minutes until they are heated through. Alternatively, you can grill or pan-fry them for a crispy texture.

  2. 2

    Toast the Buns

    While the hot dogs are cooking, slice the hot dog buns lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Place the buns on a grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Hot Dogs

    Once the hot dogs are cooked, place each hot dog into a toasted bun. Add mustard, ketchup, and relish to taste.

Fries Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Fries

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 180°C (350°F). Add the frozen French fries in batches to avoid overcrowding and fry for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown and crispy.

  2. 5

    Drain and Season

    Once cooked, carefully remove the fries and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil. Sprinkle with salt to taste.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, serve the two assembled hot dogs alongside a generous portion of fries. Add two pickle spears on the side for a crunchy complement.
