Ingredients
- 450 g (1 lb.) Lafleur Bar-B-Q wieners, cut into approximately 3-cm (1¼-in.) slices • 45 ml (3 tbsp.) canola oil
- 45 ml (3 tbsp.) canola oil
- 1 clove garlic, chopped
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) ground Cayenne pepper
- 250 ml (1 cup) flour
- 2.5 ml (½ tsp.) salt
- 5 ml (1 tsp.) baking powder
- 2 eggs
- ¾ cup milk
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) oil
- Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
- Oil for deep frying
- 150 ml (2/3 cup) plain yogurt
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) honey
- 15 ml (1 tbsp.) fresh mint, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
- Combine all of the dip ingredients.
- Set aside in the refrigerator.
- Marinate the wiener slices in canola oil with the garlic, half the Cayenne pepper, the salt and pepper for 30 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine the flour with the baking powder and the rest of the Cayenne pepper; season to taste.
- In another bowl, beat the eggs with the milk and add to the flour mix to make a smooth frying batter.
- Lightly drain the wieners.
- Dip the wieners in the batter one by one and place into the hot oil, holding them for 5 seconds before dropping them into the oil, to prevent them from sticking to the bottom.
- Deep-fry in the hot oil until the nibbles are golden brown.
- Cut in two, skewer each piece with a toothpick, and serve immediately with the yogurt dip.
