To make this curry hot dog recipe, start by slicing each hot dog crosswise diagonally about ⅓-inch deep five times spaced out (see the photo above).

To make the spice blend for these seasoned hot dogs, add oil, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and turmeric powder to a small bowl and mix well.

Pour the oil and spice mixture into a non-stick skillet and use a spatula to spread the mixture around the pan bottom. Add the hot dogs to the skillet, and use the spatula or tongs to roll the hot dogs around so that they are coated in the spice mixture.

Pan frying hot dogs is quick and easy! Heat the skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the curry hot dogs, rolling them every few minutes for about 4-5 minutes until they are plumped and the skin browns.

Serve the curry hot dogs warm in a bun with your preferred toppings (see the ingredients list above for topping suggestions for these seasoned hot dogs).

These curry hot dogs are great served with French fries or sweet potato fries, potato chips, baked beans, potato salad, or a tangy coleslaw on the side.
