Vegetable oil (for deep frying)
1/2 cup unsifted all-purpose flour (for dredging)
2/3 cup yellow cornmeal
1/3 cup unsifted all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk
1 egg, well beaten
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
10 ready-to-eat frankfurters (1 pound)
10 wooden skewers
Recipe
Place oil in deep-fat fryer, insert deep-fat thermometer, and begin heating to 375 degrees F. Place 1/2 cup dredging flour in pie pan; set aside.
Mix cornmeal, 1/3 cup flour, and salt in 2-cup glass measure. Add milk, egg, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Mix well and set aside.
Thread frankfurters onto wooden skewers. Roll in dredging flour to coat, shaking off excess. Dip frankfurters, one at a time, in cornmeal batter, then fry in 375 degree F oil until golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Serve warm.
