Korean corn dogs using bread slices is downright easy but an edible bliss! I usually make corn dogs using batter but that’s history. Less stress and mess to make a delicious corn dog treat for yourself or the family. Try this easy Korean corn dogs recipe and let me know what you think.
Where is the corn in my corn dog?
I hate to break it to you but there isn’t any corn in corn dogs. The classic U.S. corn dogs are made using cornmeal batter hence the name. Skewered sausages are dipped in the batter then deep-fried. There are different versions of this snack around the world and the most famous one are the Korean corn dogs.
What are Korean corn dogs?
Korean corn dogs also known as gamja hotdogs are popular Korean street food especially in Seoul. What sets it apart from the U.S. corn dog is that it doesn’t use cornmeal batter and is not limited to sausages. It also has breadcrumbs making it crispy then lightly coated in sugar and slathered with ketchup and mustard.
Why this recipe works!
This Korean corn dog recipe takes away the hassle of making a batter by using store-bought sliced white bread.
By using sliced white bread, you don’t have to worry about undercooked batter. They’re also much quicker to prepare and deep fry.
Less ingredients to make and most that you need are probably in your pantry already.
Don’t limit yourself with just sausages as filling. Try making Korean corn dogs with only mozzarella or spam. You can also try coating the corn dog with small bits of french fries.
Easy and quick to make without taking up much of your time. You can even include the kids while making the corn dogs for a fun activity.
How to make Korean corn dogs using white bread
Prepare the sliced white bread by cutting off the sides. You can also buy sliced bread with the sides already removed.
Flatten the bread using a rolling pin until thin.
Brush the edges of the bread with egg wash.
Place a piece of cheese in the center of the bread. I use a burger cheddar cheese for this recipe.
Place the sausage on top of the cheese near the edge of the bread near you. If the sausage is too long you can cut the edges to fit or cut in half if it’s really long.
Roll the bread carefully to avoid it from breaking. Pinch the sides of the rolled bread to seal.
Dip the rolled bread in beaten egg then coat with bread crumbs.
Deep fry in a pot with enough oil at low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Remove from pot and place in a plate with kitchen towel.
The secret ingredient is always LOVE
