Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, let’s prepare the hearty filling for your egg hot dogs. Finely dice the potato (about 70g), onion (about 40g), and bacon (about 80g). Having these prepped makes the sautéing process much smoother.
Step 2
In a bowl, crack the 4 large eggs. Season them lightly with salt. Then, pour in 1/2 cup (100ml) of milk and whisk everything together to create your egg mixture. Adding milk will make the scrambled eggs extra tender and fluffy.
Step 3
Now, preheat your pan and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil (15g) and 1/2 tablespoon of butter (7g). Once the butter is melted, add the diced potatoes, onions, and bacon. Sauté over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning. It’s important to cook the potatoes until they are tender.
Step 4
When the potatoes in the pan are nearly cooked through, pour in the prepared egg mixture. Using a spatula, gently stir and scramble the eggs until they are cooked through and have a fluffy texture. Continue to cook until the eggs are no longer runny.
Step 5
You can prepare the hot dog buns to your preference. Lightly toast the inside of the buns in a pan until golden brown, or place them in a steamer or on the ‘keep warm’ setting of your rice cooker for about 10 minutes to warm them through. Be careful not to let the buns become too hard.
Step 6
Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise on the inside of each prepared hot dog bun. The mayonnaise will help the filling adhere to the bun and add a delicious richness.
Step 7
Now, generously spoon the cooked scrambled egg mixture into each hot dog bun. Top the filling with about 1 cup (40g) of mozzarella cheese, sprinkled evenly. The cheese will become wonderfully gooey and melted.
Step 8
Finally, drizzle ketchup and mustard over the top according to your taste. Your delicious and nutritious egg hot dogs are now complete! They are best enjoyed immediately while warm.
