Description

Prepare to embark on a delectable culinary adventure with the irresistible Korean Corn Dog. This creative street food masterpiece combines the classic all-American hot dog with a mouthwatering array of crunchy coatings, melted cheese, and savory seasonings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 hot dogs
  • 4 ounce mozzarella, cut to match hot dog length
  • 4 wooden skewers or chopsticks
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 egg
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoon caster sugar
  • 1 cup cubed potatoes (par-cooked, optional)
  • 1 packet ramen, crushed (optional)
  • 1 cup cornflakes, crushed (optional)
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

1. Begin by threading each skewer or chopstick with a hot dog and a piece of mozzarella cheese, ensuring the ends are sealed to prevent any cheese leakage during the frying process.

2. Arrange separate shallow trays or dishes with the panko breadcrumbs, cubed potatoes, crushed ramen, crushed cornflakes, and caster sugar. This will make the coating process a breeze.

3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, and baking powder. Then, add the egg and gradually whisk in the milk until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter.

4. Fill a deep pot or Dutch oven with a neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola oil, and heat it to a temperature between 320–340°F.

5. Dip each skewered hot dog and cheese into the batter, allowing any excess to drip off. Then, roll the coated skewer in your preferred crunchy toppings (potatoes, ramen, cornflakes), pressing them firmly onto the surface. Finally, finish with a coating of panko breadcrumbs for a delightfully crispy exterior.

6. Carefully lower the coated skewers into the hot oil and fry for 3–5 minutes, flipping them halfway, until they are golden brown and crispy.

7. Once the Korean Corn Dogs are fried to perfection, remove them from the oil and drain them on paper towels. While they’re still hot, dust them generously with the caster sugar. Serve your creations immediately, accompanied by your favorite dipping sauces, such as ketchup and mustard.

Notes

Maintain the oil temperature between 320–340°F for optimal frying results.

Press the toppings firmly onto the battered corn dogs to help them adhere during the frying process.

Experiment with different cheese varieties, such as cheddar or pepper jack, to suit your taste preferences.

Consider adding a touch of spice to the batter or coating by incorporating cayenne pepper or chili powder.

Serve the Korean Corn Dogs immediately for the best texture and temperature.
