Mexican Charred Corn Dog Recipes

MEXICAN CHARRED-CORN DOG

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook corn until browned. Add vegetable oil and sliced scallion whites and cook until scallion is tender. Season with salt and pepper. Combine mayonnaise and lime juice. Place hot dogs in buns and top with corn mixture, lime mayonnaise, crumbled Cotija or feta, and sliced scallion greens. Sprinkle with chili powder.

MEXICAN HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Tightly wrap each hot dog with a strip of bacon until most of the hot dog is covered. Transfer hot dogs to an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. If using jalapeños, place them skin-side down on a separate aluminum foil-lined baking sheet and lightly drizzle with oil. Roast jalapeños until skin starts to blister, about 25 minutes. Roast hot dogs until bacon is browned and starts to ripple, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the yellow onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown and shrinks by half, about 10 minutes. Stir in bell pepper and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season to taste with salt. Remove from heat when onions are caramelized and peppers are soft, about 20 minutes.
• Make the pico de gallo with avocado: Combine tomatoes, avocado, red onion, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and set aside.
• Toast buns, if desired. Blot excess oil from the hot dogs with a paper towel and transfer to buns. Top with onions, peppers and pico de gallo. Drizzle with ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. Finish with roasted jalapeños, if desired.

HOT DOGS WITH CHARRED, CHEESY CHILI-LIME CORN TOPPING

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and jalapeno and saute until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add the corn and salt and cook until charred, about 5 minutes. Transfer the corn mixture to a bowl to cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, heat a rimmed grill pan over medium-high heat. Working in batches, grill the hot dogs until charred on all sides, about 7 minutes. Place the hot dogs in the buns.
• Add the crema, lime zest and juice, cilantro, cotija and chili powder to the corn mixture and stir to combine. Serve the corn mixture over the hot dogs. The topping can be made up to 3 days in advance.

Steps:

• Fill a deep pot with the oil and heat to 360 degrees F. Set a wire rack over a sheet tray.
• Meanwhile, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, poppy seeds, baking powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk in the egg, buttermilk and hot sauce, if using. Place a 5-inch skewer halfway through the center of each cocktail frank. Dip the franks in the batter to coat, then place into the oil to fry until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon or tongs to the wire rack. Repeat with the remaining franks and batter, being sure to return the oil to temperature between each batch.
• Stand a frank up, and onto the skewer thread a tomato, pearl onion, sport pepper and cornichon. Sprinkle with the celery salt. Serve with the relish and mustard. Repeat with the remaining skewers.

KOREAN CORN DOGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Fill a large stock pot fitted with a deep-fry thermometer with canola oil. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C). Reduce the heat to medium to maintain the temperature. Set a wire rack over a baking sheet and place it nearby.
• Prepare the potatoes: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the potatoes and blanch for 2 minutes, then drain and transfer to a medium bowl. Let cool to room temperature, 15-20 minutes. Once cooled, sprinkle the flour over the potatoes and toss until well coated, shaking off and discarding any excess.
• Make the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In a 2-cup liquid measuring cup, whisk together 1 cup of milk and the egg until well combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whisk until combined. The batter should be fairly thick; if it is too thick to whisk, add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time. Transfer the batter to a pint glass or another tall, narrow container. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Thread each hot dog half onto the pointy end of a skewer, cut-side up, pushing down to about 2 inches below the tip. Thread the mozzarella rectangles onto the skewers above the hot dogs so they are flush with the cut ends of the hot dogs and the tips of the skewers.
• Add the panko, floured potatoes, and rice puffs to individual plates or small trays.
• Working one at a time, dip a cheese and hot dog skewer into the cup with the batter, coating completely. Gently shake off any excess batter.
• For the original dogs: Roll a battered dog in the panko bread crumbs until well coated, using your fingers to pack on the bread crumbs as needed.
• For the potato dogs: Roll a battered dog in the floured potatoes, using your hands to pack on the potatoes to ensure they stick. Immediately roll the potato-coated dog in the panko bread crumbs until completely coated.
• For the crispy rice dogs: Roll a battered dog in rice puffs until completely coated, using your fingers to pack on the puffs as needed.
• Place the coated dogs in the hot oil, 2-3 at a time, and fry for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown and crispy, using tongs to turn as needed. Transfer to the wire rack and sprinkle all over with sugar (use tongs when turning; the sticks will be very hot). Repeat with the remaining corn dogs to make 4 of each kind.
• To serve, drizzle ketchup and mustard over the corn dogs.
• Enjoy!
