Cooking method

Cooking time: 30 min

  1. Step 1:

    Step 1

    Combine all the dry ingredients — everything except the all-purpose flour. Add the egg and milk and stir until smooth. You want a very thick batter. If yours turns out thin, blame the flour — it varies a lot! If needed, add more cornmeal (use the finest grind you can find) or hold back some of the milk, adding it a little at a time.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2

    Skewer each sausage on a stick and roll it in the all-purpose flour.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3

    Dip the floured sausage into the cornmeal batter to coat.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4

    Fry in the hot oil until golden and crisp.

  • Be ready for the batter to need a bit more or less flour than the recipe calls for. Go by the consistency you're after, not the exact amount of flour. Getting to know how different flours behave will save you a lot of guesswork.
  • Fry in an oil with a high smoke point! Every oil is only good up to a certain temperature — its smoke point — beyond which it starts to burn and forms harmful compounds, including carcinogens. Unrefined oils, with a few exceptions, have a low smoke point: they're full of unfiltered organic particles that scorch quickly. Refined oils hold up much better to heat and have a higher smoke point. Whether you're baking, pan-frying, or grilling, reach for a high-smoke-point oil. The most common ones are refined sunflower, olive, and grapeseed oil.
