Number Of Ingredients 22

Onion Sauce:
2 T canola oil
2 Lg onions, halved & thinly sliced
2 t ancho chile powder
1/2 t ground cinnamon
1/2 C ketchup
1/4 t hot sauce
1/2 t kosher salt
1/4 t ground black pepper
Grilled Pepper Relish:
6 cloves roasted garlic, coarsely chopped
3 grilled red peppers, peeled, seeded & diced
3 T extra-virgin olive oil
2 T red wine vinegar
3 T finely chopped fresh flat leaf parsley, plus leaves for garnish
Kosher salt & freshly ground pepper
Grilled Hot Dogs:
8 all beef kosher hot dogs
canola oil
freshly ground black pepper
Soft poppy seed or regular hot dog buns
Dijon mustard

Steps:

  • For the onion sauce: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Stir in the chile powder and cinnamon and cook for 1 minute. Add 1 Cup water, the ketchup, hot sauce, salt & pepper and bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened and the onions are very soft, adding more water if needed, about 25 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature before serving. For the grilled pepper relish: Combine the garlic, peppers, oil, vinegar & parsley in a bowl and season with salt & pepper. Cover & let sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving. For the hot dogs: Heat a grill to high for direct grilling. Brush the hot dogs with oil and sprinkle with pepper. Grill until slightly charred and golden brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Put the hot dogs in the buns and top with mustard, onion sauce and grilled pepper relish.

Tips:

  • Choose the right peppers: Look for firm, brightly colored peppers with no blemishes. If you want a milder relish, use a combination of sweet and hot peppers. For a spicier relish, use mostly hot peppers.
  • Prepare the peppers properly: Wash the peppers thoroughly and remove the stems and seeds. If you want to remove the heat from the peppers, soak them in cold water for 30 minutes before chopping.
  • Use a food processor or blender to chop the peppers: This will make the relish smooth and consistent.
  • Add your desired ingredients: In addition to peppers, you can add other vegetables, fruits, and spices to your relish. Some popular additions include onions, celery, carrots, garlic, ginger, and mustard seeds.
  • Simmer the relish until it thickens: This will help to develop the flavors and preserve the relish.
  • Canning the relish: If you want to store your relish for a long time, you can can it. Follow the instructions in the recipe carefully.
