Whether you’re looking for the perfect finger food for a party or simply in the mood for a deep-fried treat to eat by yourself, these corndogs are the ultimate snack to satiate your cheat day cravings.
4-5 chicken/plant-based sausages ½ cup cornmeal ½ cup all-purpose flour 2 tablespoons sugar 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 egg ½ cup milk ¼ cup spring onions, chopped 1 teaspoon black pepper powder 1 teaspoon chilli flakes 8-10 wooden skewers Salt to taste Oil, for deep frying Ketchup, to serve Mustard, to serve
Soak the wooden skewers in water for about an hour and pat them dry using a clean cloth.
Mix together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, pepper and chilli flakes in a bowl and set aside.
Whisk the egg, milk, spring onions together and season with salt.
Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and combine to form a smooth, thick batter.
Ladle the batter into a tall glass and set aside until ready to use.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan and allow it to reach smoking point.
Meanwhile, divide each sausage into two pieces, if using long ones or keep them whole if they are a cocktail size.
Pierce each skewer into the sausage, dip into the waiting batter and drop each one in the hot oil.
Fry on all sides for 3-4 minutes, until they turn a golden-brown colour.
Remove and drizzle with ribbons of ketchup and mustard and serve hot.
