Idiot Proof Yorkshire Puddings Recipes

FOOL-PROOF YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Pour oil equally into 6 cups of a Yorkshire pudding tin and place in the oven to heat.
• Line up 3 identical glasses. Add eggs to the first glass. Add milk to the second glass; it should come to the height of the eggs in the first glass. Add 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons flour to the third glass; it should match the height of the eggs and milk in the other glasses. Whisk measured eggs, milk, and flour together in a mixing bowl. Season the batter with salt and pepper.
• Remove hot oiled tin from the oven. Pour batter into the cups and return tin immediately to the oven.
• Bake puddings in the preheated oven until well-risen, 4 to 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Sieve the flour into a bowl and add in a pinch of salt. Mix 1 beaten egg, 4 tablespoons each of water & milk into a jug, then add to the flour & salt mixing continually, beat well with a 'wooden' spoon until a smooth runny batter, is obtained. This mix is sufficient for 2 people, if more is required simply multiply the mix.
• This is the important part, leave the mixture to stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Heat the oven to 230C and when hot add 1/2tsp of fat to each tin and place the tin into hot oven, when the fat is smoking hot then add your mixture.
• Tip: Keep fat used from previously cooked pork/beef sausages in your fridge until required, this adds a fantastic flavour.
• Cook in the hot oven for approx 15-20 minutes if using small bun tins and 30-35mins if using large tins.
• Enjoy!!

YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Mix flour and salt together until blended. Make a well in the flour, add the milk, and whisk until consistent. Beat the eggs into the batter. Add water and beat again until the mixture is light and frothy. Set aside for an hour (or, if it's the day before, cover in the fridge overnight).
• If the batter has been refrigerated, allow it to come up to room temperature before using. When the roast beef is ready to come out of the oven, ready the mixture.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (205 degrees C).
• Pour off drippings from roast beef and measure out desired amount (about 1/2 cup should do). Pour drippings into a 9x12 inch baking dish and place into the oven until the drippings sizzle. Pour the batter over the drippings and bake for 30 minutes (or until the sides have risen and are golden brown). Cut into eight portions and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix together the flour, eggs and milk, until well combined. Cover and leave in the fridge for as long as possible-24 hours is good, 60 minutes minimum.
• Melt blobs of lard/dripping or oil in pudding tin holes-enough that when its melted it comes up the side of the hole about 1/2cm.Remember lard has a higher smoke point than oil, and dripping more than lard, and in this case the hotter you can go, the better.
• Heat the pan in a HOT oven, until oil/lard or dripping is smoking hot. If need be, heat the pan over a flame over the stove to get it smoking.
• Remove batter from the fridge and mix quickly, pour into pudding holes. It should sizzle immediately.
• Place tray in hot oven and do not open the door. Four large puddings take about 20-25 minutes.
• NB-you can eat these cold with jam too!
