Ingredients
- 5.3 oz Japanese Hotcake Mix (1 bag Morinaga Hotcake Mix; or use your favorite pancake mix or homemade pancake recipe for the batter; make sure the batter is thick, so you can coat the hot dogs well)

- 1 large egg (50 g each w/o shell)
- 4 hot dogs/sausages
- 3 cups neutral oil (for deep-frying)
For Serving
- ketchup
- mustard

Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients.
- Depending on size of the 4 hot dogs/sausages, cut each hot dog in half or two-thirds (save the remaining one-third to make mini corn dogs).
- Insert a chopstick or a lollipop stick into the sliced end of each hot dog.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 large egg (50 g each w/o shell) and 100 ml whole milk (½ cup minus 4 tsp).
- Add 5.3 oz Japanese Hotcake Mix and whisk well.
- Fill a large heavy pot, Dutch oven, or deep fryer with 3–4 inches of oil (or enough oil to submerge the hot dogs, about 3 cups neutral oil). Heat the oil over medium-high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 320–340ºF (160–170ºC). I use this instant read thermometer.
- Pour the batter into a tall glass. Dip each hot dog into the batter, turning until completely coated. Let any excess batter drip off so that the hot dog is coated evenly.
- Lower the hot dog into the hot oil. Immediately repeat with another hot dog. Cook until deep golden brown, about 3 minutes. Make sure to turn the corn dogs so that they get even color.
- Transfer to a paper-towel-lined tray or wire rack. Working in batches of 2, repeat with remaining hot dogs and batter. Serve the corn dogs immediately with ketchup and mustard.
