Ingredients

1/3 c cornmeal
1 1/4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 c caster sugar
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (optional)
1 egg, lightly beaten

2. Fill a deep-fryer or large saucepan ⅓ full with oil and heat over medium heat to 180°C.
3. Place remaining ¼ cup flour in a shallow bowl and, working with one hot dog at a time, dust in flour, shaking off the excess, then, holding one end of the hot dog with tongs, coat liberally in batter.
4. Gently drop into oil and fry for 4 minutes, turning halfway, or until crisp and golden.
5. Drain on paper towel.
6. Thread corn dogs onto skewers and serve immediately with ketchup and mustard.

They say the show must go on, but it just can't without a Dagwood Dog - one of the top 40 Australian foods. This frankfurter on a stick is battered and deep-fried and is found at most carnivals. With tomato sauce on top, of course. Or as we call it in the US, ketchup. (Mustard is optional!)
