Anleitungen
Prepare the Chili: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until soft (about 3 minutes), then add garlic and cook 30 seconds more.
Brown the Beef: Add ground beef to the skillet and break it apart as it cooks. Cook until browned, about 5–6 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Flavor the Sauce: Stir in tomato paste, yellow mustard, Worcestershire, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well. Add 1/2 cup water and reduce heat. Simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
Cook the Hot Dogs: While the chili simmers, grill, boil, or pan-fry the hot dogs until heated through and slightly browned.
Assemble: Place hot dogs in buns. Top each with a spoonful of chili, a drizzle of yellow mustard, and a sprinkle of diced onion. Serve hot.

For extra flavor, prepare the chili sauce a day ahead—it tastes even better the next day.To steam buns at home, microwave each in a damp paper towel for 10–15 seconds or steam over boiling water for 1 minute.To make this spicier, add a dash of cayenne or hot sauce to the chili.
