Mexican Charred Corn Dog Recipes

Steps:

• In a skillet, cook corn until browned. Add vegetable oil and sliced scallion whites and cook until scallion is tender. Season with salt and pepper. Combine mayonnaise and lime juice. Place hot dogs in buns and top with corn mixture, lime mayonnaise, crumbled Cotija or feta, and sliced scallion greens. Sprinkle with chili powder.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and coat a 24-cup mini muffin pan with cooking spray. Slice the chorizo into 24 rounds, about 1/2 inch thick.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to cool.
• Meanwhile, combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, 1/2 teaspoon salt, the baking powder, baking soda and cayenne in a large bowl. In another bowl, whisk the egg and buttermilk, then whisk into the cornmeal mixture along with the scallions until smooth. (It should be the consistency of pancake batter.)
• Pour the batter into the prepared muffin pan, filling each cup about halfway. Place a piece of chorizo in the center of each cup. Bake until golden and cooked through, about 12 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes, then remove from the pan.

Steps:

• Soak corn in cold water for 15 mins. Heat a griddle pan or barbecue and, when hot, place the corn directly on the bars. Cook for 30-40 mins, turning regularly, until the corn is tender and charred in spots.
• Meanwhile, mash the butter with the lime zest and chili. When the cobs are done, top each with a knob of flavoured butter and serve with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Grill corn until hot and lightly charred all over, 7 to 10 minutes, depending on the temperature of the grill. Roll the ears in melted butter, then spread evenly with mayonnaise. Sprinkle with cotija cheese and serve with a lime wedge.
