These corn dog fries are crispy, surprisingly light, and even more snackable than their state-fair cousin. Thin strips of hot dog are coated in cornmeal batter, fried until golden, and made for dunking in ketchup and mustard.

Steps

  1. Pat hot dogs dry with paper towels and place in an even layer on a large plate or small baking sheet.

  2. Freeze the hot dog strips until firm, at least 30 minutes.

  3. Meanwhile, pour vegetable oil to a depth of about 2 inches into a medium Dutch oven. Heat over medium to 375 degrees F (190 °C) (190 degrees C (375 °F)).

  4. Whisk together corn muffin mix, egg, buttermilk, cornstarch, garlic powder, salt, and smoked paprika in a medium bowl until a thick batter forms.

  5. Working in batches, dip frozen hot dog strips into the batter, allowing excess to drip off.

  6. Carefully add the battered strips to the hot oil.

  7. Fry, turning occasionally, until the batter is deep golden brown and crisp and hot dogs are heated through, about 2 to 3 minutes.

  8. Transfer corn dog fries to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.

  9. Serve immediately with ketchup and mustard for dipping.

Notes

Freezing the hot dog strips for at least 30 minutes is a critical step to ensure the batter adheres properly and the hot dogs don't overcook before the batter becomes crispy.
