GINA'S SHRIMP CORN DOGS

Steps:

• Add all the shrimp ingredients to a food processor and pulse until well combined and smooth. Form the shrimp mixture into 7 equal sized 2-inch balls. Insert a wooden pop stick into the middle of each shrimp ball and form the ground shrimp into a shape similar to a hot dog. Place shrimp dogs on a cookie sheet and put in the refrigerator until well-chilled and firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat deep-fryer to 350 degrees F.
• While chilling shrimp dogs, prepare batter. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup flour, egg, cornmeal, garlic powder, sugar, baking powder and buttermilk.
• Place the remaining 1 cup of flour onto a large plate. *Dredge chilled shrimp dogs into flour then dip into the batter and fry in the hot oil for 3 minutes or until dark and golden brown. Remove to a paper towel lined sheet tray to drain.
• Serve with dipping sauce.
• In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, horseradish, and paprika. Place in refrigerator until ready to serve corn dogs.

• With moistened hands shape the mixture into 1 1/2 x 3-inch logs and arrange on a baking sheet. Insert a popsicle stick into one end of each log, pushing the stick almost to the other end. Cover the corn dogs and chill in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
• Mix the flour, cornmeal, paprika and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Whisk in the beer. Dip one corn dog at a time in the batter, coating the corn dog and 1/2-inch of the popsicle stick evenly.
