curry dog

The other day on Twitter, I was chatting with one of my friends and we got on the topic of hot dogs with curried cabbage.

It seems that curried cabbage on hot dogs is a Kansai (Western Japan) thing.

Since I had that on my mind when I went to the market, I picked up some weiners and cabbage and made my own curried cabbage.

With a handful of cabbage, slice it thinly.

Then in a non-stick pan, throw in your cabbage and let it wilt.

While it is wilting, add a teaspoon or so of curry powder.

When the cabbage is cooked to your liking, take it off the heat. I like it a little "crunchy" so I didn't cook it too long.

To assemble the dog...I used baguette, but you can use a hot dog bun.

Instead of slicing the bun on the side, I sliced it from top to bottom.

Open up the bun and add a layer of curried cabbage, then add your hot dog.

On the sides, slip in your cheese and top with more cabbage.

Toast for about 5 minutes.

Add some chips to your plate and you're ready for lunch.

So easy and delicious.
