    Sausage Corn Dogs

    12 uncooked sausage links
    1/2 cup water
    Peanut oil
    1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
    1 cup all-purpose flour
    1/2 cup grated Romano or Parmesan cheese
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon salt
    2 beaten eggs
    1 1/4 cups 1/2 + 1/2 or light cream
    12, 10x1/4 inch wooden skewers or dowels
    Warm marinara sauce (optional)

    Prick several holes in each sausage link with the
    tines of a fork. In a large skillet cook sausage
    links over medium heat about 5 minutes or until
    brown, turning frequently. Carefully add water.
    Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, covered,
    for 5 minutes. Uncover and cook, turning frequently,
    until liquid evaporates and sausages are done,
    (160 degrees F). Drain on paper towels.
    Heat oil to 375 degrees F.
    For corn batter:
    In a large bowl combine cornmeal, flour, cheese,
    baking powder, and salt. Make a well in center
    of cornmeal mixture. In a medium bowl combine
    eggs and 1/2 + 1/2. Add egg mixture to cornmeal
    mixture. Stir just until moistened.
    Insert a wooden skewer into one end of each
    sausage link. Dip sausage links into batter, using
    a spoon to coat all sides evenly.
    Fry corn dogs, t3 at a time, about 3 minutes or until
    golden. Do not crowd in pan. Be cautious of
    splattering oil. Maintain oil temperature around 375
    degrees F. Remove corn dogs and drain on wire
    racks. If desired, serve with marinara sauce.
    Makes 12.
