Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 Tbsp vinegar or lemon juice
  • scant 1 cup milk (I used skim)
  • 1 1/2 cup flour
  • 1 cup yellow corn meal
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 eggs
  • 10-12 hot dogs
  • brochettes or wooden skewers, cut in half

Instruction

  • Preheat some oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 365 degrees. You need it to be a couple of inches deep and the pan needs to be large enough to fit the corn dogs in.  I used my Le Cruset oval dutch oven.  You want to completely submege the corn dogs in the oil.
  • Place 1 Tbsp of the vinegar or lemon juice in a liquid measure cup.  Then add enough milk to measure 1 cup.  Stir and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk together the flour,corn meal, sugar, baking powder,salt, and baking soda in a large bowl.  Add milk and eggs then whisk until well combined.
  • Insert skewer in hot dog and dip in batter. Coat hot dog well and fry in 356 degree oil until golden brown. Drain on towels.
