I cut my hotdogs into pieces that were approximately 1 inch long, I bought an 8 ounce pkg(small one) of thin spaghetti ( I made mine using 6 hotdogs as I only had 3 kids to feed, and ended up using less than 1/2 the box of sspaghetti), I broke the spaghetti into thirds then I put the spaghetti into the hotdogs set each aside on a plate til I was ready to boil then. The spaghetti went very easily into the pasta and did not take very long about 1/2 thru I started some hot water in a pan on the stove... by the time I was finished putting the spagheti into the hotdogs the water was boiling and ready to go. I put them in and waited til the noodles were soft about 10-12 min, I recommend going the longer of the 2 as I checked one at the 9 min mark and the pasta inside the hotdog was in need of a little longer cooking. I also made homemade frenchfries to go with it which I cut fresh potatoes into small fries coated them with oil put them on a pan with some salt and pepper and baked it in a 350 degree oven for about 20 min, the potatoes I started before starting the jellyfish as my kids called them so everything would be done about the same time. And about 6-7 min before my french fries were done I used some hot dog rolls to make cheesy garlic bread, I finished out the meal by making a cheese sauce to go under the jellyfish. My kids were thrilled they thought it was a wonderful meal and all together the whole thing including putting the spaghetti into the hotdogs took 25- 30 minutes, it was quick easy and a big hit.
