Put a pot of water on the cooktop and set it to high to boil quickly.

Split each hot dog into 4 pieces (in half and then in half again).

Put the hot dog pieces onto the spaghetti, threading the spaghetti through the middle of the hot dog.

Ensure the spaghetti is the same length on both sides of the hot dog.

Use about 10 pieces of spaghetti, but there are no strict rules on quantity.

Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium.

Gently place the hot dog spaghetti into the boiling water, being careful not to break them.

Cook the hot dog spaghetti for about 7-8 minutes, checking the package for specific cooking times.

After 8 minutes, use kitchen pliers to take the hot dog spaghetti out of the pot and place them on a plate.

Optionally season with salt or pepper, or add a little butter and mix.
