Corn Dog Preparation
- 4
Prepare Hot Dogs
Insert a wooden skewer into each hot dog, pushing it in about halfway. This will make them easy to dip and fry.
- 5
Heat Oil
In a large, deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 6
Dip and Fry
Dip each skewered hot dog into the batter, ensuring it is completely coated. Carefully place it into the hot oil. Fry in batches, avoiding overcrowding, for about 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
- 7
Drain and Cool
Using a slotted spoon, remove the mini corn dogs from the oil and let them drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Allow to cool slightly before serving.
