How to cook deliciously - Dad's Homemade Corn Dogs

1 . Stage

Combine cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl; stir in milk and egg until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

2 . Stage

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook hot dogs in boiling water until heated through, about 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and let rest for 10 minutes.

3 . Stage

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Insert one skewer into each hot dog and blot dry if wet. Pour chilled batter into a tall drinking glass.

4 . Stage

Dip one hot dog into batter until well coated; transfer to hot oil. Repeat with as many hot dogs as can comfortably fit in the fryer without overcrowding (one or two more). Fry until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels. Repeat to coat and fry remaining hot dogs.
