Corndog Ingredients
Method
Corndog Directions
Prepare the Hot Dogs
Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, pushing it in about halfway.
Make the Batter
In a large bowl, mix together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and egg. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed; do not overmix.
Heat the Oil
In a large pot or deep fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).
Coat the Hot Dogs
Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, ensuring they are completely coated.
Fry the Corndogs
Carefully place the coated hot dogs into the hot oil, frying a few at a time to avoid crowding. Fry until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels.
