Korean Street Cheese Corn Dogs Recipe & Video - Seonkyoung Longest (1)

I’m super excited because I’m going to share another amazing Korean street food recipe with you!!

WOOTWOOT~!!

When we went to Dongdaemun, Seoul.

We accidentally found these amazing cheese corn dogs!

What makes Korean corn dogs different is…

1. We coat the corn dogs with panko so it’s extra crunch outside!

2. After frying the corn dogs, we coat them evenly with sugar!

I know it sounds a bit strange, but TRUST me!

It will be the best thing you’ll ever put in your mouth! lol!

First thing is first.

Let’s make the corn dog batter!

In a mixing bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.

Make a little well in the middle and add egg and milk. Mix everything together until smooth. Pour batter into a long glass and keep it in a fridge until ready to use.

Now, this step is very important!

Keeping the batter cold is one of the key secrets to the success of this recipe!

If the batter is warm, it won’t coat the cheese thick enough and become too runny.

Skewer cheese sticks into bamboo or wooden skewers. Dust with flour and place in a freezer for at least 5 minutes to 10 minutes.

Now, this step is also very important!

As I mentioned with the batter, cold temperature is the key to this recipe!

If the cheese is not cold and at room temperature,

it will melt away too soon than way before the batter cooks & turns into beautiful golden brown color.

It’s very important to keep everything cold, otherwise, the cheese will leak out to the oil.

Heat frying oil to 350°F

Dip and coat skewered cheese sticks with the cold batter. Make sure to cover all around. Now, lightly and quickly coat with panko bread crumbs then carefully place into frying oil.

Another important part!!

I promise you this is only the last thing you need to remember for this recipe!

You MUST keep the oil temperature in between 350°F to 365°F.

If the oil temp goes below that and you just drop the corn dogs…

It will cook the surface too slow and the breading part will be cracked and open.

Means…

The cheese will melt all over into the oil.

Messy ending.

No one deserves that kind of a mess.

So remember these 3 things.

Keep the batter cold

Keep the cheese cold

Keep the oil temperature between350°F to 365°F, no below.

If you just follow those 3 simple rules.. you will end up with this most beautiful cheesiest crispiest corn dog. EVER.
