TATER DOGS

This is a great gluten free substite for corn dogs, which is something that my 10 year old really misses. My other children love it as well. Prep is a little time consuming, but very worth it.

Potato Dogs image

This twist on a corn dog uses Idaho® Russet Potatoes instead of a cornbread batter as the breading for a hot dog. The use of potatoes makes this recipe delightfully crisp on the outside and creamy and light on the inside.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Sandwich Recipes     Hot Dogs and Corn Dogs Recipes

Time 1h40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons mustard
2 tablespoons sambal chili paste
1 tablespoon sweet relish
1 tablespoon ketchup
3 large Idaho® Russet Potatoes
olive oil
salt
¼ cup chopped scallions
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg
½ cup breadcrumbs
¼ cup sour cream
8 to 10 popsicle sticks
4 hot dogs, cut in half
3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Steps:

  • To make the sauce, mix the mayo, mustard, chili paste, relish, and ketchup in a small bowl. Set aside in the fridge until ready to use.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Using a fork, poke a few holes into each Idaho® Russet Potato. Rub each potato with olive oil and salt and place on a baking sheet. Bake the potatoes for about 1 hour, until tender.
  • Peel the potatoes and run them through a potato ricer into a large bowl. Add the scallions, Parmesan, egg, and breadcrumbs. Stir well to combine. Add the sour cream, starting with about half, and stir to combine. Add more as needed until the mixture is smooth, but not too wet. It should be stiffer than mashed potatoes.
  • One by one, stick a popsicle stick into a hot dog starting at the cut end and putting it about 3/4 of the way through the dog. Take about 1/4 cup of the potato mixture in your hand and press it flat into your palm. Wrap it around the hot dog, adding more as needed. Press to tightly seal. Repeat until you run out of the potato mixture or the hot dogs.
  • Heat about 3 tablespoons vegetable oil in a heavy bottom pot to 375 degrees F. Working in batches, fry the potato dogs, flipping a few times to evenly brown on all sides. Remove from oil to a drying rack or paper towel and season with a pinch of salt.
  • Serve the potato dogs with the sauce on the side, or drizzled on top if desired.

Categories     Snacks

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups all purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 tablespoons sugar
1 large egg
1 ½ cups milk
3 yukon gold potatoes, peeled, medium sized
2 tablespoons all purpose flour
vegetable oil, for frying
2 beef hot dogs
1 block mozzarella cheese
all purpose flour, for dusting
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
sugar, for serving
ketchup, for serving
Special Equipment
4 wooden chopsticks

Steps:

  • Make the batter: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Make a well in the center, add the egg and milk, and whisk until smooth. Transfer the batter to tall glass, then chill in the refrigerator until ready to use.
  • Make the potatoes: Dice the potatoes into ¼-inch cubes, then transfer to a large bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for 1 hour to remove excess starch, then drain.
  • Bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Add the potatoes and blanch for 3-4 minutes, until cooked ¾ way through. Drain and rinse with cold water. Pat the potatoes dry and transfer to a bowl. Sprinkle the flour over the potatoes and toss to coat.
  • Make the cheese dogs: Heat 4-5 inches of vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat until the temperature reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Cut each hot dog in half crosswise.
  • Cut the mozzarella block into 4 rectangles to match the size of the hot dog halves.
  • Thread a hot dog half and a cheese stick onto each wooden chopstick. Lightly coat in flour.
  • Transfer the potatoes to a plate or baking sheet. Add the panko bread crumbs to a separate plate or the same baking sheet.
  • Dip a cheese dog in the batter to coat fully, then place on the potatoes, packing tightly to adhere. Coat in the panko bread crumbs. Repeat with the remaining cheese dogs.
  • Fry the potato hot dogs, 2 at a time, in the hot oil for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a paper towel to drain.
  • Sprinkle the potato hot dogs with sugar and drizzle with ketchup.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Choose the right potatoes: Use starchy potatoes like Russet or Idaho potatoes for the best results, as they will hold their shape well and become fluffy and crispy when baked.
  • Season the potatoes well: Be generous with the salt, pepper, and garlic powder to ensure the potatoes are flavorful. You can also add other herbs and spices like paprika, thyme, or rosemary for extra flavor.
  • Use a combination of cheeses: Using a blend of cheeses, such as cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan, will give the tater topping a rich and complex flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking sheet: Make sure to leave enough space between the tater-topped dogs on the baking sheet so that they can cook evenly and get crispy.
  • Keep an eye on the dogs: The cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the hot dogs and the size of the potato topping, so keep an eye on them to prevent burning.

Conclusion:

Tater-topped dogs are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a party or a weeknight dinner. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a dish that is sure to please everyone. So next time you're looking for a fun and unique way to enjoy hot dogs, give tater-topped dogs a try!
