Instructions

  1. Dry the sausages and push a wooden stick into each one about halfway along its length.
  2. Mix the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt and paprika in a bowl.
  3. Add the egg and milk and mix until you have a thick, smooth batter.
  4. Pour the batter into a tall glass or deep bowl deep enough to dip the sausages in.
  5. Dip each sausage into the batter, turning it to coat it well.
  6. Heat oil to 175 °C in a deep pan and fry the corn dogs for 3 to 4 minutes, turning them, until nicely golden.
  7. Drain on kitchen paper and serve straight away with mustard and ketchup.

Variations and tips

Cheese version. Cut the sausages in half lengthwise and slip a stick of cheddar in place of the sausage.
