Step by Step

RECIPE INGREDIENTS

  • Dragon Mature Welsh Cheddar
  • Active dried yeast
  • White sugar
  • Warm water
  • Plain or ‘all-purpose’ flour
  • Salt
  • Frankfurter
  • Frozen French fries
  • Cornflour
  • Panko breadcrumbs
  • Vegetable oil (not pictured)
  • Mayonnaise
  • Korean gochujang

RECIPE DIRECTIONS

  1. Prepare the corndog batter:Mix the yeast, sugar, and warm water in a container wide enough for dipping skewers. Combine the flour and salt, and add to the yeast mixture. Cover and leave to rise for an hour.
  2. Assemble the skewers:Cut the cheese and sausages into pieces, and thread them onto wooden skewers. Feel free to experiment with different combinations; I’ve included two options in my Korean corn dog recipe, below.
  3. Coat the skewers:Roll each skewer lightly in plain flour, dip it in the batter using a twisting motion, and then roll it in diced frozen French fries, pressing lightly to stick. Coat with panko breadcrumbs while keeping the fries visible.
  4. Freeze and fry:Freeze the skewers for 20 minutes, then fry at 190°C (350°F) for 3–5 minutes, turning occasionally if using a pan. Drain on a rack or kitchen towel and allow to cool for 5 minutes.
  5. Make the gochujang mayo:Stir mayonnaise and gochujang together until smooth.
  6. Finish with sugar and gochujang mayo: Roll the corn dogs in sugar, drizzle with gochujang mayonnaise, and serve.
