Ingredients

Avocado Mustard Sauce

  • 1 avocado
  • 2 limes juice of
  • 1 jalapeno seeds removed
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • 2 pickle spears
  • 1 tablespoon hot sauce
  • 2 tablespoons pickle juice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Arepa Hot Dogs

  • 8 hot dogs
  • 1.5 cups masarepa plus more for dusting
  • salt
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  • Mix all the avocado sauce ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth. Set aside in the fridge until ready to use, covering with plastic in a way that the plastic touches the surface of the sauce.
  • In a large bowl, mix the masarepa, salt, butter, milk, and water. Stir to fully combine. Continue to stir for a few minutes, then allow to rest for 5 minutes before using.
  • Preheat a cast iron pan to high heat
  • spread out a little masarepa on a plate and dip the hot dog in it.
  • Pick up some of the arepa dough and flatten it on a piece of parchment paper. Place the hot dog in the middle and wrap the dough around 3/4 of the dog, leaving the top exposed. Remove excess dough, you only want a thin layer. Flatten the 4 edges of the arepa dough so that it can cook and char evenly in the pan, and so that the hot dog is equal or higher than the top edges.
  • Add the arepa to the dry pan and repeat with remaining dogs. Flip the dogs in the pan every few minutes to char evenly on all sides.
  • Serve the dogs with the sauce on the side.
