Colombian hotdogs make delicious snacks or party food. This unique and delicious sandwich is sold in hotdog stalls in Colombia. I love the fusion of flavors especially the use of pineapple sauce. As for the hotdogs, they may be boiled or grilled. Enjoy!
Serves 6
Ingredients:
6 hotdog buns
6 hotdog or veggie dogs
1 cup pineapple sauce
1 cup coleslaw
1 small bag potato chips, crushed into fine pieces
Mayonnaise
Ketchup
Mustard
For the pineapple sauce:
2 cups fresh pineapple peeled and cut into chunks
1/3 cup water
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar or taste
1 1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
Juice of half a lime
First prepare the pineapple sauce by putting the pineapples in a food processor or blender. Process it for 1 minute or until it is smooth.
Put the processed pineapples on a sieve and squeeze out the juice in a small saucepan. Discard the pineapple pulp.
Place the saucepan with pineapple juice over medium heat. Add the lime and sugar. Cook it for 15 minutes. Stir constantly.
Dissolve the cornstarch in 1 teaspoon of water and then add it to the pineapple sauce. Bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer it for another 1-2 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Continue to stir. Remove from heat and let it cool.
Half fill a pot with water. Put it over high heat and bring it to a boil. Add the hotdogs and cook them for 5-7 minutes or until they are ready. Drain and place them on a plate lined with paper towels or a colander to remove the excess liquid.
Assemble the sandwich by placing a hotdog on a bun. Top it with pineapple sauce, coleslaw, mayonnaise, mustard and ketchup. Sprinkle it generously with crushed potato chips. Repeat this for the remaining ingredients. Serve immediately.
