My Yorkshire Pudding.

Added by Julian | Tue 07 Dec 2010 @ 23:51

My Yorkshire Pudding.

I find semi-skimmed milk is better than full cream.

Ingredients
Ingredients

125g / 4oz sifted plain flour
a pinch of salt
1 large / 1 medium egg
300ml / half pint semi-skimmed milk
Teaspoon of oil.


Method
Make sure the oven is hot - 220C / 475F / Gas Mk 8.

Using a wooden spoon, gradually beat the egg and milk into the flour and salt until you have a smooth batter. Beat well and leave to stand.I would suggest 2 hours in a fridge or over night in a fridge for a much better batter.For tins i use a muffin tin,but you can try using a roasting tin.Fill whatever tins you decide to use with oil.Place in the oven and take out when the oil is very hot.Before you pour the batter in beat the batter again.Bake for 12 - 20 minutes - depending on size - until puffed and golden. Serve immediately.
Try not to open the oven door until they\'re done - glass doors are useful. If you have to, just open it enough to take a quick peek.

In one of Jamie's series i saw, that he just poored the oil into the tin like he was watering flowers.:D And the recipe was: 1 cup flour, 1 cup milk, egg, and some salt ... looked interesting but turned out amazing.:)

I've always been told just to put then tin with the oil in the oven, that way the tin is hot and not just the oil, and means that your stove doesn't get splattered, and there's much less chance of the oil catching fire. Then you can pour the batter in quickly. Looking forward to making these tonight!!!

My wife used to make Yorkshire puddings and you could drink them.

I was born in Lancashire, England and have been cooking YP's for 40 years. You don't fill the tin with oil. If using a muffin tin, .5 to 1cm is plenty of oil in each one. Just make sure it's hot before pouring in the batter. Cheers and Enjoy.<br /> Cheryl<br />

Hi Mary<br /> Thankyou so much for your kind comment,glad you son had made these.It is a very basic recipe but very easy to do.<br /> Just a few notes.Semi Skin milk again is much better to use than full fat cream.Full better results,when you finsih making the batter,leave iit in a fridge over night because you will get better results.Most important pre heat the oven and make sure the oil is very hot before adding the oil to the muffin tin.Once in the oven,please dont open the oven door as their will flop,done this quite a few times.

Hi Jean
Make sure the oil is VERY hot before pouring the batter into the tin. It may be easier to heat the tin containing the oil on the stove top rather than in the oven. You should aim to have about 3mm/1/8 inch of hot fat in the bottom of the tin before you add the batter.Muffin
