Korean Corn Dog
- 3 hot dog sausages, cut in half
- 6 pieces of mozzarella – look for the “cooking” type that are low moisture and sold in blocks. Alternatively you can try with some string cheese as well
- 150g flour
- 100ml milk
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 salt
- 1 egg
- 2 tbsp sugar
- Panko flakes
- Oil for deep frying
- Skewer half a sausage and half a piece of mozzarella cheese
- Mix the flour, sugar and baking powder together
- Add milk and egg then mix until you get a smooth batter
- Dip the skewers into the batter then roll them into panko flakes (TIP: Pour the batter into a glass so that it’s easier to dip the skewers into the batter)
- In a pan, pour some frying oil – heat it up until it becomes bubbly (~180 degrees C)
- Deep fry the corn dog for a few minutes until the exterior becomes golden
- Serve with some ketchup and mustard
Note:
- Try to keep the cheese dry and cold so that it doesn’t leak when you deep fry!
- Heat the oil until it’s bubbly ~180 degrees C
- Apparently you should also roll these in sugar after frying them like the authentic Korean street food version, bit too sweet for me but do give it a try!
