Cooking instructions

Cooking Mode turns the method into large, slide-by-slide instructions with timers, read-aloud, screen-awake and optional voice controls.

  1. 1

    Prepare the ingredients

    Heat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan). Cut the potatoes into fries and thinly slice the onions. Grate the cheese and prepare the hot dog buns, sausages, mustard and ketchup so everything is ready.

  2. 2

    Cook the fries

    Toss the fries with the cooking oil, salt and black pepper. Spread them in a single layer on a baking tray and roast for 25–30 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and crisp.

  3. 3

    Cook the sweet onions

    Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and brown sugar. Cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring regularly, until very soft, golden and caramelised.

  4. 4

    Cook the hot dogs

    Remove the onions from the pan and keep warm. Add the hot dog sausages to the pan and cook over medium-high heat for 6–8 minutes, turning regularly, until browned and piping hot throughout.

  5. 5

    Make the cheesy fries

    When the fries are crisp, sprinkle the grated cheese evenly over them. Return the tray to the oven for 2–3 minutes until the cheese has completely melted. Scatter with sliced spring onion if using.

  6. 6

    Assemble and serve

    Place a hot dog sausage in each bun. Spoon over the sweet caramelised onions and drizzle with mustard. Serve immediately with the cheesy fries and ketchup on the side.

Allergens and dietary notes

GlutenMilk / dairy

For this recipe: Contains gluten and milk if standard hot dog buns and cheese are used. Check sausage, mustard and sauce labels for additional allergens and choose suitable alternatives where required.

Useful substitutions

Standard pork or chicken hot dogs are widely available in Thailand. Use any soft hot dog rolls or small baguette-style rolls if classic buns are unavailable. Cheddar can be replaced with any good melting cheese sold locally. Brown sugar can be replaced with palm sugar. Oven fries can be replaced with frozen chips for a quicker version.

Storage and reheating

Storage

Cool leftovers promptly. Refrigerate cooked sausages and onions in separate covered containers and use within 2 days. Fries are best eaten fresh.

Reheating

Reheat sausages and onions in a frying pan until piping hot. Reheat fries in a hot oven or air fryer until crisp, then add fresh cheese if needed. Do not reheat cooked sausages more than once.
