Chilli Dogs (by G)

Back to virtually no vegetables. The mince is re-purposed tortilla mince fried off with chilli oil, chilli flakes, cayenne pepper and sirracha. Last time I made chilli dogs they were so hot they scorched our colons so I went a bit easier on the heat this time.

The buns are toasted in goose fat - it didn't add much flavour but probably shortened our lives by months.  The jumbo pickle looks good, a bit flabby and watery though.

This is a very pretty photo but I'm sure the chilli dogs will be much less pretty on the way out. I love spicy food but am just not very good at eating it. In saying that, these chilli dogs were perfectly warming but not inedibley hot which is always a good thing with dinner.

The pickle, fine dice on the onion and soft, goose-fat dipped bun was really very reminicent of McDonald's. This isn't the insult it may seem.
