How to make Panchos argentinos (Argentine-style hot dogs)

  1. Mix the onion, bell pepper, and tomato in a large bowl.

  2. Add the oil, vinegar, and lemon juice, then toss to combine.

  3. Taste and season with salt and pepper, then toss again.

  6. Heat a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat until hot.

  7. Working in batches, cook the sausages cut side down, pressing down with a spatula or a small pot lid. Turn them once and cook until slightly browned, about 2 minutes per side.

  8. Transfer the cooked sausages to a plate.

  9. Smear a generous amount of mayonnaise on both sides of the buns.

  10. Arrange 2 butterflied hot dogs on each side of the buns, cut side facing the bread.

  11. Top with mustard and a generous amount of salsa.
