Corn Dogs

By krdsk27

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 3/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 cup evaporated milk
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 1/4 teaspoon paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon mustard powder
• 1 pinch white pepper
• 10 large hot dogs
• wooden skewers
• oil (for frying, not olive oil)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix the first 10 ingredients in a bowl (if the batter is extremely thick then add in a little more milk - use just enough to hold the batter onto the hotdog do not add in too much milk or the batter will not hold on).

Transfer the mixture to a shallow dish (I find that an 11 x 7-inch baking pan works well for this).

Push the wooden skewers into the hot dogs.

Roll/coat the hot dogs well with the cornmeal mixture.

Heat oil to 375 degrees F.

Deep-fry the corn dogs for about 2 minutes until golden brown (do not over fry as the corn dogs will have a burnt taste, 2 minutes should be enough time).

Drain on paper towels.
