Ingredients
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 cup all-purpose flour, plus more for coating
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 cup milk
- Gherkins
- Baby corn
- Shrimp, peeled and deveined
- Mushrooms
- Apple slices
- Pineapple chunks
- Hard-boiled eggs
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a deep, heavy pan or deep-fat fryer to 350 degrees F.
- Whisk the dry ingredients together. Add the egg and half the milk and whisk well to combine. Add more milk as needed until the batter is thick but still pourable.
- Stick whatever ingredients you decide to use onto long skewers. Use your imagination to find other interesting “variations.” Coat the ingredients in flour and then dip into the batter. Make sure to get it completely coated. Immediately and carefully, lower it into the hot oil. Fry, in batches, until they are light brown, about 3 minutes. Let drain on paper towels and serve while still warm.
Reviews
I made this recipe and it was wonderful. I had to add a little more sugar to it to add a little more sweetness ,but overall great. I cut the hotdogs in half and rolled them in flour.. Very easy to make and we all enjoyed them.
This was an ok recipe but not the best. Corn dogs were a bit bready and not what I was hoping for. Recipe is great for its simplicity, but lacking in texture and taste.
I did not like this recipe. Me and my gf tried it and we used hot dogs and the batter had absolutely no taste what so ever! We Had to use twice the amount of milk add our own spice’s. We cute our hot dogs in half and they were still cold in the middle. Not my favorite!
I think this recipe is simple to prepare. I found that the liquid to dry ratio was a little off. When I prepared the batter I had to double the milk to get the correct consistancy to dip the dogs.
Good but the directions for adding milk are pretty bad. 1/2 cup was not near enough. Tasted good. Very easy to make. Can be fun to do with kids (just keep them away from the hot grease)
It was a very good and easy recipe to follow and do
