yorkshire puddings

I would consider myself Yorkshire, but some of my friends who have grandparents and great, great grandparents that are Yorkshire would not consider it so.  My southern and Scottish relatives would say that I am very northern, very Yorkshire whilst people from there would say I had a southern twang or no accent at all.

Oh well, thought I would try Yorkshire’s namesake, the Yorkshire pudding.  Traditionally eaten in Yorkshire as a starter rather than with a roast dinner, they’re fairly tricky even though the ingredients and cooking instructions are fairly simple.

How people get there puddings to not inflate in the middle, I will never know.  However, these are the best Yorkshires I’ve ever made.
Heat oven to 230 degrees.
                                          

Ingredients (Makes 4)

2 eggs

120g flour

100ml milk

Oil

Pour the oil into a Yorkhire pudding tray.  Put in the oven until the oil is sizzling.

Beat the flour and two eggs together until smooth.  Add the milk and mix all together.

Pour into tray and put in the oven for 25-30 minutes.

Enjoy!

p.s Yorkshire people also eat fruit cake with a thick slice of cheese.  Try it, it’s delicious!
