Ingredients
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 300 g (10.5 oz) canned hot dogs, sliced
- 2 onions, finely chopped
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 500 g (1 lb) pork mince
- 2½ tbsp tomato paste
- 1 cup banana ketchup
- 700 g (1 lb 8 oz) tomato purée (you could also try sourcing the Filipino spaghetti sauce, although that will be sweeter)
- ½ cup chicken stock
- 2½ tbsp soy sauce
- 600 g (1 lb 5 oz) dried spaghetti
- 1 cup grated cheddar cheese, or to taste
Method
- Heat the vegetable oil in the pan over medium-high heat.
- Add the hot dogs, then cook, turning often, for 3–4 minutes until browned.
- Transfer hot dogs to a plate using a slotted spoon, leaving the oil behind.
- Add the onion into the hot oil, along with the salt. Cook, stirring, for 5–6 minutes or until the onion is lovely and soft.
- Add the garlic and cook for a minute until aromatic.
- Add the pork mince, breaking it up with your spatula. Keep cooking until the pork has evenly cooked.
- Add the tomato paste. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute to cook it down slightly.
- Return the cooked hot dogs to the pan, along with the banana ketchup, tomato sauce, chicken stock, and soy sauce. Stir to combine well.
- Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring often, for 10–15 minutes so the flavours develop. Take care as the mixture can easily burn.
- Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti in a pot of boiling salted water according to packet directions until al dente. Drain and add back into the warm pot that you cooked the pasta in.
- Spoon a few heaped spoonfuls of the cooked sauce over the pasta, then mix so that each spaghetti strand is coated.
- Divide pasta among serving bowls and top with more of the sauce.
- Top with grated cheddar and serve.
