Recipe(tried): Coney Island Hot Dogs and Sauce

Coney Island Hot Dogs and Sauce

1 (8 oz.) can tomato sauce
1/2 cup diced peeled onion
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon minced peeled garlic
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 pound lean ground beef
8 hot dogs
8 hot dog buns

Combine tomato sauce, onion, water, garlic, chili powder and salt in a mixing bowl; set aside.

In a heavy skillet over medium heat, brown ground beef, stirring often to break up any clumps. When just browned, stir in tomato sauce mixture; simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

If desired, serve with one or more of these traditional accompaniments: yellow or brown mustard, chopped onion, grated cheddar cheese, pickle relish and potato chips.
