A knob of butter
1tbspolive oil
2onions sliced thinly
100mldry cider
1tbspdark brown soft sugar
1tbspcider vinegar
1tbspDijon mustard
3tbspmayonnaise
2sausages
2hot dog buns or brioche or baguette
Instructions
Heat a frying pan and add the olive oil and butter, then throw in your onions and let them caramelise. Do this on a medium heat for approx 20 minutes
Then pour in the cider and leave to simmer until reduced.
(In another pan, start to cook your sausages).
Back to your onions. Add in the cider vinegar and dark sugar and stir in. It should look lovely and shiny; dark and sticky looking but don't cook so there is no liquid at all.... you're not making toffee!
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard.
Now, assemble your hot dog... slice down the middle of the roll, add your sausage and as much of the onion mix and mayonnaise as you like. Enjoy.
