Instructions

1PREPARE THE TOPPINGS: Peel the onion and cut it finely into rings or dice according to your preference. Slice the pickles thinly on the bias for an elegant presentation. Pour the mustard and ketchup into two separate small bowls. You can prepare all of this in advance to save time during final assembly.
2COOK THE SAUSAGES: Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Gently place the sausages in and let them cook for 8 to 10 minutes until they are heated through and slightly swollen. Alternatively, you can pan-fry them in a skillet with a drizzle of oil for 5 minutes to achieve a golden crust with more savory flavor.
3TOAST THE BUNS: Preheat your oven to 180°C or use a toaster. Lightly butter the inside of each bun and place them in the oven for 3 to 4 minutes until they are lightly golden and crispy. Toasted buns hold up better and won't absorb the sauces too quickly.
4ASSEMBLE THE HOT-DOGS: Remove the warm buns and place a sausage in each one. Apply a drizzle of mustard and a drizzle of ketchup in a crisscross pattern over the sausage. Season to your personal taste: feel free to add more if you prefer a generous amount.
5ADD TOPPINGS GENEROUSLY: Distribute the raw onions and pickles over each hot-dog. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese generously on top. If desired, you can place the hot-dogs under the broiler for a few seconds to melt the cheese slightly and create an indulgent texture.
6SERVE IMMEDIATELY: Present the hot-dogs without delay on a plate or platter. They are best enjoyed hot, with the cheese melting and the toppings fresh and crisp. Serve with fries, chips, or a green salad according to your preference for a complete and satisfying meal.
