- Deep Fried Pork Frankfurter Corn Dogs are just the thing for a filling entertainer as Appetizers, Lunch or Dinner. Quick & easy to prepare, this Indianized take on the American Inspired corn dogs, is beautifully infused with a hint of Indian spices & accompanied with a ‘can’t-get-enough-of-it-finger- licking-good’ dipping sauce made with Mango, Cilantro & Jalapenos, giving it that extra edge over
the quintessential classic Corn Dog!! –

In a blender, put the mango, jalapeno, lime juice, zest, mayonnaise, cilantro & a pinch of salt to taste— blend to a smooth dipping consistency—place in a serving bowl—cover with cling wrap & refrigerate
In a large mixing bowl add the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt to taste, chilli powder & gharam masala powder & whisk/mix to blend well
In another mixing bowl, beat the eggs with the ¼ cup oil, milk & some melted shortening—transfer to the dry mix of ingredients, gradually combining—whisk until batter is smooth & lump free
Transfer the batter into a tall glass or deep container, making it easier to dip the Franks into
Heat the 3-4 cups of oil or melted shortening in a deep fryer to abt 185-190 °C - alternatively use a deep wok or fry pan with the help of a deep frying thermometer to be able to gauge the temperature
Take the wooden skewers & insert into each Frank, leaving 2-3 inches free to use as a handle
Generously dip the skewered Franks into the batter, swirling to coat evenly & gently place into the hot oil spinning it slowly the entire time in order to get an even golden brown colour & to cook right through—fry for abt 3-5 mins to achieve this
Drain excess oil on paper towel lined plate
In a large serving platter, line the hot Corn Dogs & serve with the Mango-Cilantro-Jalapeno Dip
* Do not fry more than 2-3 Corn Dogs at a time to
avoid sticking
* Substitute Frankfurters with Kielbasa or Cocktail Wieners or Little Smokies (Smoked Sausages)
* Use any dip or simply tomato ketchup or mustard
You can never go wrong with these fun Corn Dogs & the mango dip will put you on Cloud 9!!
