Against the usual Cachorro-quente

It has 4 of the 8 parts of the usual Brazilian cachorro-quente: sweet corn, potato chips or potato sticks, ketchup and mayonnaise. Not on it: tomato sauce or paste, mashed potato, peas and any mustard.

Less usual for the style: other hot peppers (in 4% of Cachorro-quente recipes), bacon (in 13% of Cachorro-quente recipes) and avocado or guacamole (in 2% of Cachorro-quente recipes).

Sausages simmered in a tomato sauce with onion and peppers, in a soft roll, piled with some mix of mashed potato, sweet corn, peas, straw potatoes (batata palha), grated cheese, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise.
