Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Add the cornmeal, all‑purpose flour, egg, granulated sugar, fine sea salt, baking powder and whole milk into a bowl and whisk with a whisk until you have a smooth, lump‑free batter. Carefully pour the batter into a tall pitcher or glass container.

2. 2

   Pierce each sausage with a wooden skewer lengthwise so that it goes in about three‑quarters of the way. Pour oil into a pot to no more than a third of its volume and heat to 180 °C, or until a bread cube dropped into the oil browns in about 30 seconds.

3. 3

   Working with one sausage at a time, dip it into the batter and gently turn it to coat – it should be fully covered. Carefully lower it into the oil and fry for 2‑3 minutes, or until the batter is crisp and golden. Drain on a paper towel. Repeat with the remaining sausages. Serve with ketchup and American mustard for dipping or drizzling.
