LA Street Dogs (aka Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs)

Step 1

Slice the top off the bulb of garlic so the cloves are exposed. Add some olive oil, salt and pepper. Wrap the garlic in foil and put in a 400ºF oven for about 35 minutes.

Step 2

Squeeze the garlic out of the bulb and put it in a food processor. Add the mayo and the crema. Season with salt and pepper and blend until you get an even consistent sauce.

Step 3

Add some olive oil to a medium high pan. Add the sliced yellow onion and cook for about 3 minutes just until it softens slightly.

Step 4

Add the poblano and red pepper, season with salt and pepper and sauté for about 5 minutes or until the peppers and onions are softened. Remove from the pan and set aside in a covered bowl.

Step 5

Wipe the pan clean. Add a tablespoon of olive oil and sauté the jalapenos for about 5 minutes. Place them with the other sauteed vegetables, cover and set aside.

Step 6

Add the milk to a saucepan or pot. Add the cream cheese and bring to a simmer.

Step 7

in a separate bowl, combine the cornstarch, turmeric, cumin, garlic powder and onion powder. Once the cream cheese is melted into the milk, slowly whisk in the spice mixture.

Step 8

When the mixture starts to bubble, start adding the shredded cheese a bit a time so you can melt it evenly. Set it aside off the heat.

Step 9

Loosely wrap two strips of bacon on each hot dog. Use a toothpick to secure the strips. Place them on a baking tray and into a 375ºF oven for about 15 minutes.

Step 10

Take the hot dogs out and let them cool. Place them on a medium frying pan, turning them frequently for about 5-7 minutes or until they become fully cooked through. Set them aside.

Step 11

add a thin line of extra mexican crema to the bottom of the hot dog bun.

Step 12

Place the bacon wrapped hot dog inside. On Top of the hot dog, add some of the nacho cheese sauce, followed by the pico de gallo. Enjoy!

Step 13

add some of the roasted garlic sauce to the bottom of the bun.

Step 14

Add the bacon wrapped hot dog on top, followed by some mustard and ketchup. Place the peppers and onions on top. Enjoy!
