Corndogs

Method

Corndogs Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, mix together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Combine both mixtures until just blended.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Hot Dogs

    Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, leaving enough of the stick for handling. Pat the hot dogs dry with a paper towel.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Corndogs

    Dip each hot dog into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the battered hot dog into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Sides Preparation

  1. 5

    Prepare the Sides

    Cook French fries according to package instructions. Arrange carrot sticks and apple sauce in serving bowls.
