Yorkshire Pudding

Tomorrow (today in Australia) is Mother's day and I am a long way away from my Mum so I decided as a tribute to her this Mother's Day that I would try my hand at something from her hometown... Yorkshire Puddings.

Yorkshire Puddings

Serves: 12

Prep Time: 5mins (plus time to let the batter stand) Cook Time: 20mins

4 eggs

200ml milk

pinch of salt

3/4cup flour

Oil

1. Place eggs, milk and salt in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer. Let the mix stand for 5-10 mins until the bubbles disappear

2. Add the flour to the egg mix and beat on high until everything is mixed together. Leave the bowl to sit in a cool place (not the fridge) for at least 1 hour, but this can be left overnight. Just before you are ready to cook, preheat the oven to the highest temperature.

3. Take a muffin tray and place a drop of oil in the bottom of each cup. Put the tray in the oven and leave for 5 mins until the oil is almost smoking.

4. Remove the tray from oven and 1/3 fill each cup with the pudding mix (as you pour it in you should hear a sizzle from the oil) then return the tray to the oven and cook for approximately 15mins.

5. Serve with a roast dinner and don't forget the gravy!

An easy to make side dish that went beautifully with my roasted pork belly.

Happy Mother's Day Mum! You would have loved them!
