Cachorro Quente - Brazilian Hot Dogs
Report
These Brazilian Hot Dogs are a classic Brazilian childhood favorite! They're a special treat that's easy to make and tastes oh-so-special. They're cooked in a tomato sauce with veggies to elevate their flavors and can be topped with a ton of fun stuff, from the sauce they're cooked in to Parmesan cheese, some Batata Palha potato sticks, or anything you like!

Ingredients
For the Brazilian Hot Dog Sauce:
- 10 hotdog
- 10 hot dog buns
- 1 onion or 1/2 of a large one, small, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper seeded and sliced
- 1 teaspoon Brazilian sofrito or 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons butter unsalted
- 1.5 cups marinara sauce
- 1/2 cup water
Toppings Suggestions:
- potato sticks or crumbled (cracked?) potato chips, Batata palha, to taste
- Parmesan Cheese to taste
- ketchup to taste
- mustard to taste

Instructions
- Using a paring knife, make a slit down the middle of each of the hot dogs and set aside.
- In a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
- When the butter is melted, add the chopped onions and the bell peppers. Sautee until the onions are transparent, about 2 minutes.
- Next, add in the garlic, and sautee until it's fragrant, about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the marinara sauce and the water, and stir to combine, then submerge the hot dogs in the sauce. Bring to a simmer.
- Simmer the hot dogs for 5-10 minutes.
- Place the cooked hot dogs in the buns, and top with the sauce, a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese, and potato sticks to taste. Dress with mayo, ketchup and mustard, if desired!
Bom Apetite!!
