Korean Flags (Korean Sausage Banderillas)

Directions

  1. In a bowl, mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
  2. Add the egg and milk to the dry ingredients and stir until smooth to make the batter.
  3. Thread the sausages onto skewer sticks. If using cheese, insert cheese pieces between sausages.
  4. Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 170–180°C (340–360°F).
  5. Dip each skewered sausage into the batter, covering it completely. Use your hands if needed to spread the batter evenly.
  6. Roll the battered sausage in breadcrumbs or panko until fully coated.
  7. Fry the skewered sausages in hot oil until golden brown and cooked through, about 3–5 minutes.
  8. Remove from oil and drain on absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
  9. Let the Korean flags cool slightly before serving. Serve with ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, hot sauce, or a sweet-and-sour Korean-style sauce.
