Method
Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar and kosher salt together in a bowl.
Whisk in the milk and egg until you have a smooth, thick batter.
Push a skewer through each hot dog lengthways.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large saucepan to 175°C, checking with a meat thermometer.
Dip each hot dog into the batter, coating it fully, then lower carefully into the hot oil.
Fry in batches for 4 minutes, turning occasionally, until deep golden.
Check with a meat thermometer that the centre reads at least 71°C, then drain on kitchen paper before serving.
