MY MUM'S EASY AND TRADITIONAL ENGLISH YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 240C,475F or gas mark 9. (If you are cooking roast beef and/or roast potatoes, make sure the beef has been removed to "rest" before carving and that the potatoes are moved down to the bottom shelf and NEED browning still.).
• Pour a scant amount of oil or dripping into your Yorkshire Pudding tins.(A large roasting tin can be used too. If you do not have a Yorkshire Pudding tin which has 4 wide and shallow cups of about 4" in diameter, then use a large muffin tin.).
• Put the tin into the pre-heated oven about 5 minutes before you want to cook the Yorkshire Puddings.
• Empty the flour, salt & pepper into a large roomy bowl.
• Make a dip in the centre and add the beaten eggs bit by bit, mixing as you go along.
• Add the water/milk mixture gradually and whisk in between each addition.
• Keep whisking until all the liquids have been added. The batter may still be lumpy - this does not matter.
• Cover and leave to rest for up to 1 hour.
• Just before cooking, whisk thoroughly again to break down any lumps & add some more air.
• Carefully take out the tin/s. Pour the batter into the tin/s and QUICKLY return to the oven.
• Cook for about 20 minutes until well risen and golden brown. DO NOT open the oven in the first 10-15 minutes or they will DROP!
• If you have two tins cooking, rotate the tins from top to bottom shelves after the 10-15 minutes so they cook evenly.
• Serve with Roast Beef and lashings of gravy!
• Can also be served with any Roast Dinner - we love them with Roast Chicken - see photos!

GIANT YORKSHIRE PUDDING SUNDAY LUNCH

Steps:

• To make the batter, crack the eggs into a bowl or jug, then add the flour - it should make roughly the same quantity as the eggs. Whisk together until smooth. Gradually add the milk and carry on whisking until the mixture is lump-free. Season. Pour the batter into a jug, cover and chill for at least 30 mins and up to 24 hrs.
• Heat a dry frying pan. Brush the steak with oil and season it well, place in the pan and brown on each side, then remove from the pan and leave to cool completely. If you're making ahead, wrap and chill until you need it, up to 24 hrs. Peel the potato and cut it into quarters, put them in a pan, cover with water and then bring to the boil. Once they've come to the boil, cook for 2 mins, then drain. Leave to dry completely and chill until needed.
• When you're ready to serve your Sunday lunch, heat oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Drizzle a little oil into a 20cm frying pan with an ovenproof handle and put it in the oven. Heat a little oil in a small roasting tin on the same shelf. Tip the potatoes into the roasting tin, turn them over in the oil, add the carrots and the steak. Put the tin back in the oven. Pour the batter into the frying pan and put it back in the oven and cook for 25 mins.
• Check the Yorkshire pudding. It should have a good dark brown colour at the edges and feel firm and dry. If it's ready, take it out and set aside. Remove the steak from the tin and rest until you're ready to serve, wrapped loosely in foil to keep warm. Turn the potatoes and carrots and add the broccoli to the tin. Cook for a further 10 mins and if they look done, remove the veg, but put the potatoes back in the oven. Heat the gravy.
• Turn off the oven and put the Yorkshire back in to warm through. Slice the steak and tip any juices into the gravy. Serve the Yorkshire on a plate, filled with the meat, veg and potatoes and pour over the gravy.
