I always make my own Yorkshire puddings and there are variations which can be done so this is my version and some variations are put in brackets for you too.
Ingredients.
Oil/fat/lard
30g (1oz) Plain Flour
3 Tbs milk (any kind)
1 large Egg, (free range if possible!)
salt and pepper to taste.
Dash of water
Set your oven to high and get it nice and hot.
Pick your chosen pan and add your fat, I have used olive oil here but you can use stock from your meat or lard depending on taste. Put enough in to coat the bottom of your pan and put in the oven on the top shelf.
Add all of your ingredients into a bowl except the water and beat well.
Then add a splash of water to thin the mixture slightly and beat again.

When your fat is VERY hot remove the pan from the oven and pour mixture into the pan. Make sure you shut the oven door whilst doing this to keep the heat in. Return pan to the oven on the top shelf and cook for about 20 minutes.
VoilĂ ! Home made Yorkshire puddings!!
Serve in any way you wish and Enjoy.

This mixture make enough for about 6 small or two medium sized Yorkshire puddings. Obviously you can double the mixture if you wish to make more or are wanting to make bubble and squeak!!
So this is how I make my Yorkshire puddings. Quick, simple and tasty!!

I don't weigh anything out either, it all works out ok, though I must admit to using Aunt Bessie's quite often these days, I'm getting lazy.
ReplyDeleteShame on you Jo. I have tried Aunt Bessies in the past...but I like mine a little soft in the middle and you never get that with ready made ones.
DeleteI think sometimes going with the flow and creating your desired consistency is far better than following a recipe to the letter once you have got used to it. After a while my recipes end up with quite a few adaptations!!
Now can you really call them Yorkshire Puddings when they are made out of Yorkshire? :)
ReplyDeleteLincolnshire Puddings just don't have the same ring to them Sue....maybe I should call them T.P.'s?!?! lol
