Idiot Proof Yorkshire Puddings Recipes

FOOLPROOF YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

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!!

IDIOT-PROOF YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

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!

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.
