    Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs (GF)

    These Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs are bound to satisfy even die-hard carnivores! They're:

    • full of flavour
    • secretly healthy
    • super easy to make!

    Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs (GF)

    These Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs were inspired by these Gluten-Free Vegan Sausage Rolls - they're made using protein- and fibre-rich kidney beans, and packed full of delicious herbs, spices and seasonings.

    I've used:

    • sweet sundried tomatoes
    • pungent garlic
    • smoky paprika
    • earthy cumin
    • fragrant oregano
    • spicy cayenne
    • tangy vinegar
    • umami-rich miso and soy sauce

    Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs (GF)

    I like to use kidney beans because the colour closely resembles chorizo, but if you're not into kidney beans they can easily be substituted with white beans or black beans.

    This recipe uses tinned kidney beans, which are already cooked. If using dried kidney beans, you must be very careful to soak and cook them according to the instructions on the packet, because uncooked kidney beans contain toxins and will cause digestive problems!

    All you need to do to make the hot dogs is throw all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and whizz them together! Then just mould them into hot dog shapes and cook them in a frying pan.

    I love to serve these Vegan Chorizo Hot Dogs with lashings of vegan mayonnaise - this is my favourite recipe!

    Ingredients

    For the hot dogs:

    • 400 g (14oz) tin of kidney beans, drained and rinsed (or sub white beans or black beans)
    • 1 garlic clove
    • 5 sundried tomatoes (soaked if using dried ones)
    • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
    • ½ teaspoon ground cumin
    • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
    • Pinch of cayenne chilli pepper, to taste
    • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (ensure gluten-free if necessary)
    • 1 heaped teaspoon miso (ensure gluten-free if necessary)
    • 1 teaspoon tamari (or soy sauce if not gluten-free)
    • Salt + pepper, to taste

    To cook:

    • 1 tablespoon oil (coconut, vegetable, rapeseed or olive)

    To serve (suggestions):

    • Hot dog buns (ensure gluten-free if necessary)
    • Lettuce
    • Vegan mayonnaise

    Instructions

    For the hot dogs:

    • Add all ingredients to a food processor or blender (or a hand-held stick blender) and whizz until completely smooth
    • Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary

    To cook:

    • Divide the hot dog mixture into three and use hands to shape into sausage shapes (make sure they’re long enough for your hot dog buns!)
    • Heat the oil in a non-stick pan and place the hot dogs in the pan once hot
    • Cook on a medium heat for around 7 minutes, then use a spatula to carefully turn them over
    • Cook for a further 7 minutes on the other side, until slightly browned on both sides
    • Serve in hot dog buns with lettuce and mayonnaise, if desired

    Notes

    This recipe uses tinned kidney beans, which are already cooked. If using dried kidney beans, you must be very careful to soak and cook them according to the instructions on the packet, because uncooked kidney beans contain toxins and will cause digestive problems!

      For me also didn’t work. Is more as a purée, gets smashed so easily after cooking or supposed to be like that? Anyway thanks for an amazing recipe for pâté 😀

        Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm sorry they didn't hold together for you. It can depend on how naturally watery your kidney beans are. You can alternatively use chickpeas which will make them slightly firmer, or maybe add a teaspoon of tapioca flour to help them firm up. I hope that helps!

      I am wondering about the amount of beans. You say 400 g. Then a can of... But a 400g can has about 290g net weight. So which is it? 400g (about 1 1/2 cans) or a can (about 290g?)

      Many thanks

      Soy sauce is included in the vegan chorizo hotdog recipe, but soy sauce contains gluten!! Tamari is a good substitute
