Remember the hotdogs from the Senior Grocery program? Yes, those.
I watched Queer Eyes on Netflix. On one of the episodes, they made hotdogs. They used pickled carrots of which I have some left over from the Tuna Salad sandwich à la Vietnamese. I am happy when I could use up all of my ingredients. They put mashed chips ( looked like potato chips) on it for crunchiness.
I just improvised a little, use pineapple mayonnaise to replace ketchup. And I used cashew nuts instead of the chips because I feel that any kind of chips would add more saltiness to the already salty hotdog sausages.
This recipe could be a disaster or it could be not. Who knows? I’ll just have to try.
Are you ready to embark with me on my new adventure?

Steps

1

I tasted the hotdogs yesterday when I made the Omerice. It was little too salty. So, I used a toothpick to make holes in the hotdogs and boiled for 4 minutes. Drained for 1 hour.
2

After an hour, I made cuts on two sides of the hotdogs. One side cuts are opposite of the other.
3

Chop pineapples. If it is not sweet, sprinkle some sugar and set aside for 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, squeeze the extra liquid. Put in a bowl, add mayonnaise. Mix well.
4

In a bowl, put mustard, honey and vinegar. Mix well. Crush the cashews using knife or mortar and pestle. Below is a picture of the ingredients I put in my hotdogs.
5

Grill the hotdog buns. I used a skillet with ridges for the buns.
6

On a pan on medium heat, heat up the hotdogs.
7

On a hotdog bun, spread some pineapple mayonnaise, add hotdog, some pickled carrots, drizzle the mustard, sprinkle some crushed cashews and some green onion. Done.
