Instructions
Special equipment: Thick wooden pop sticks
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.
