Batter

Hot Dogs

Method

Batter Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

    In another bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil until smooth.

  3. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.

Prepare Hot Dogs

  1. 4

    Insert Skewers

    Take each mini hot dog and insert a wooden skewer or toothpick into one end, making sure it goes through the center for stability.

Frying

  1. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat 4 cups of vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

  2. 6

    Coat Hot Dogs

    Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, making sure it is fully coated.

  3. 7

    Fry Mini Corn Dogs

    Carefully place the coated hot dogs into the hot oil, a few at a time. Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown, turning occasionally.

  4. 8

    Drain

    Using a slotted spoon, remove the corn dogs from the oil and drain on paper towels.
