Description

These Korean corn dogs are a delicious blend of stretchy cheese, juicy sausage, and a crisp, golden coating. With a sweet-salty crunch and endless dipping possibilities, they’re the ultimate snack or party hit.


Ingredients

Scale

For the Batter:

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

  • 2 tbsp sugar

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1 large egg

  • 3/4 cup milk

  • 2 tbsp cornmeal (optional, for extra crunch)

For the Filling:

  • 4 hot dogs or sausages (cut in half)

  • 4 mozzarella cheese sticks (cut to match sausage length)

  • Wooden skewers

For the Coating:

  • 11.5 cups panko breadcrumbs

  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (for dusting)

For Frying:

  • Oil for deep frying (vegetable or canola)

Optional Toppings:

  • Sugar (for dusting after frying)

  • Ketchup, mustard, or gochujang mayo


Instructions

  1. Prep the Filling:

    • Thread each skewer with half a sausage and half a cheese stick. Freeze for 15–20 minutes to firm up.

  2. Make the Batter:

    • Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, cornmeal (if using), egg, and milk in a bowl until smooth. The batter should be thick enough to cling.

  3. Coat the Dogs:

    • Roll each skewer lightly in flour, dip into the batter to coat, then roll in panko breadcrumbs. Press gently so it sticks.

  4. Fry Until Golden:

    • Heat oil in a deep pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry 2–3 corn dogs at a time for 3–4 minutes or until deeply golden brown. Drain on paper towels.

  5. Add the Sweet Finish:

    • While still warm, roll or sprinkle with sugar if desired. Serve with your favorite sauce.
