Makes 4-5 servings
1 cup flour
2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
2 Tab. sugar
1 1/2 tea. baking powder
1 tea. salt
1/2 tea. dry mustard
2 Tab. shortening
1 beaten egg
3/4 cup milk
1 pound hot dogs (8-10)
cooking oil
In bowl combine flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, and dry mustard. Cut in
shortening until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Mix egg and milk. Add to dry
ingredients; mix well. Insert wood skewers into ends of hotdogs. Pour oil into skillet to
depth of 1 inch. Heat oil to 375 degrees (I use my electric wok for this). Coat hotdogs
with batter. If batter is too thick, add 1-2 Tab. milk. Arrange coated hotdogs 3 at a time
in hot oil; turn hotdogs with tongs after 10 seconds to prevent batter from sliding off.
Cook 3 minutes, turning again halfway through cooking time. Serve hot with mustard if desired.
