CHILI CHEESE DOGS

Steps:

• For the chili: Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the beef and garlic and cook, stirring and breaking up into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon, until the meat is brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add the chili powder, cayenne, cumin, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook, stirring, until well combined, about 1 minute.
• Add the tomatoes, tomato paste and 1/2 cup water to the pot. Stir well and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered and stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and keep warm.
• For the chili dogs: Preheat a grill or large grill pan to medium. Grill the hot dogs according to the package directions until grill marks appear and the hot dogs are warmed through, about 5 minutes. Working in batches, if necessary, grill the cut side of the buns until golden and toasted, about 1 minute. Build the hot dogs and top each with about 1/4 cup of chili spooned down the length of the hot dog. Sprinkle each with some cheese and serve with ketchup and mustard.

Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds. Add in the beans, tomato paste, chili powder, smoked paprika, cumin and cayenne and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the beans start to pop. Stir in the water, season with more salt and pepper and turn the heat down to low to keep warm.
• Meanwhile, for the cheese sauce: Place the potatoes and sweet potatoes into a large pot of cold water. Season well with salt and bring to a boil over high heat. When the water reaches a boil, add in the cashews and cook until the potatoes and cashews are tender, about 10 minutes. Reserve about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid then drain the potatoes and cashews and transfer to a high-powered blender. Add the oil, pickled jalapeños, vinegar or pickling liquid, 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast and 2 teaspoons of tomato paste. Season with the garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne pepper and salt. Add 1/4 cup of reserved cooking liquid and blend until smooth, adding more water, nutritional yeast, tomato paste and/or salt, if needed. Transfer the cheese sauce to a small pan to keep warm over low heat while you cook the hot dogs.
• For the hot dogs: Cook the hot dogs in a pan over medium-high or on the grill over medium until lightly charred.
• Serve in the buns topped with beans, a good drizzle of the cheese sauce and a sprinkling of green onions, cilantro and pickled jalapeños, if using.
