Batter

Hot Dogs

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Hot Dogs

    Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, pushing it in about halfway. This will make them easier to dip in the batter and fry.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well until there are no lumps.

  3. 3

    Add Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and vegetable oil. Pour this mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Frying

  1. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep frying pan or a deep fryer, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). You can test the oil by dropping a small amount of batter into it; if it sizzles and bubbles, it's ready.

  2. 5

    Dip and Fry

    Dip each hot dog into the batter, ensuring it's fully coated. Carefully place the battered hot dog into the hot oil. Fry in batches, without overcrowding the pan, for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown and crispy.

  3. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the mini corn dogs from the oil and place them on paper towels to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauces.
