Yorkshire Pudding

Serves 6

Ingredients

Method

250 g. Plain Flour
4 Eggs
¼ tsp. Salt (Kosher)
600 ml. Milk (Full Fat)
250 ml. Vegetable Oil

In a mixing bowl place the flour and salt, mix together and make a well in the centre.

In a separate bowl beat the eggs and the milk together and pour the mixture into the well in the flour and whisk into a batter. The mixture should be a pouring consistency.

Place the batter in the fridge while preparing the baking tin/tins.

Preheat the oven to 200ºC / 400ºF

You can use an individual baking dish to make one large Yorkshire pudding or a muffin or cup cake tin to make individual puddings but if you do use muffin / cup cake tins, only fill every other muffin / cup cake as the puddings will expand as they cook.

Cover the base of the baking dish or the individual tins with oil and place the dish / tray in the oven to heat the oil to almost smoking point.

When the oil is hot , very carefully fill the dish or trays with the batter and place back in the oven and cook for 20 - 25 minutes or until golden brown and well risen.

Serve immediately or keep warm in some tin foil until ready to use.
