MARK HAMILL'S ROAST SIRLOIN & YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS

Steps:

• Ideally, make your Yorkie batter the night before. Whisk the eggs, flour, milk, 25ml of water and a pinch of sea salt to a smooth batter, then pop into the fridge overnight, removing when you preheat the oven for the meat (or, as a minimum, make the day you need it but leave to rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes).
• Preheat the oven to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4.
• For the gravy, place the bones in a large roasting tray. Trim, wash and roughly chop the leeks, quarter the unpeeled onions, then add to the tray and roast for 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove the bones and veg to a large pot, keeping the tray of juices to one side. Top up the pot with 2.5 litres of water, bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for at least 2 hours 30 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by half.
• Place the tray over a medium heat on the hob, then add the flour and stir well to pick up any sticky bits from the bottom. Pour in the wine and port, leave to bubble away for 1 minute, then gradually whisk in a few ladles of the stock, before tipping it all back into the pot.
• Simmer gently for a further 2 hours, or until you reach your desired consistency.
• Lift out the bones and strain the gravy, skimming off any fat from the surface, then adjust the seasoning, if needed. Keep aside to reheat at the last minute.
• When you're ready, remove the beef from the fridge and leave to come up to room temperature. Turn the oven up to full whack (240ºC/475ºF/gas 9).
• Score the beef fat in a criss-cross fashion, then rub with 1 tablespoon of oil.
• In a blender, blitz the peppercorns, 1 tablespoon of salt and the rosemary leaves to a fine dust, then sprinkle and pat all over the beef.
• Place a large roasting tray on a medium-high heat, carefully sear the beef on all sides, then transfer to the oven.
• Immediately reduce the temperature to 180ºC/350ºF/gas 4 and roast for 50 minutes - this will give you medium-rare (cook for a little longer, if you prefer) - then remove to a board. Cover and rest for 30 minutes.
• Turn the oven up to 220ºC/425ºF/gas 7.
• Divide the dripping between a 6-well deep Yorkshire pudding tray (8.3g per well, if you want to be super-scientific about it!), then place on the middle shelf of the oven for 5 minutes, or until the fat is smoking hot.
• Quickly but carefully pour the batter into the wells - each should be between half and three-quarters full. Immediately return to the oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until they have quadrupled in volume, are deep golden all over and sound hollow when tapped.
• Carve and serve up the beef, adding a Yorkshire pudding to each plate, then drizzle with gravy (reheat, if needed). Delicious served with pinches of lemon-dressed watercress, horseradish and crispy roast potatoes.

ROAST BEEF YORKIES

Steps:

• Cook your Yorkshire puddings following pack instructions. Meanwhile, mix the horseradish, mustard and crème fraîche or soured cream together.
• Fold a slice of pastrami or roast beef into each pudding, top with a dollop of the mustardy cream, then scatter with chives or crispy onions and serve.

MINI YORKSHIRE PUDDING WITH ROAST BEEF

Steps:

• Whisk together the flour and salt in a large bowl. In a separate bowl beat together the eggs, milk and butter. Make a well in the flour and whisk in the wet ingredients gradually until fully combined and smooth. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and allow the batter to rest for 1 hour at room temperature.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease 3 mini nonstick muffin tins. Place the tins in the oven to heat up for at least 10 minutes. Give the batter a quick stir and pour it into each muffin cup filling halfway leaving room for them to rise.
• Place in the oven and do not open for 30 minutes. They should rise after 30 minutes and be golden all over. Remove from oven. Top with a thin slice of roast beef and a small dollop of horseradish on each pudding. Garnish with sprig of chive. Serve immediately.

ROAST PRIME RIB OF BEEF WITH YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• For the prime rib: In a medium bowl, combine the mustards and peppercorns. Stir to blend until it forms a paste. Place the prime rib in the roasting pan (fitted with a rack) you intend to cook it in. Place the roast, fat side up, and spread the peppercorn paste over the whole top. If marinating, refrigerate overnight.
• For the Yorkshire pudding: In a medium bowl, combine the flour and salt. Stir to blend. Whisk in the eggs, one by one, and then the water. Refrigerate.
• For the prime rib: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Remove the prime rib from the refrigerator about a half hour before cooking. This will allow the meat to come closer to room temperature and help the meat cook more evenly. Season the roast with salt. When the oven is hot, place the meat in the center of the oven. Allow it to cook 12 to 15 minutes per pound (2 1/2 to 3 hours). Cook until the meat reaches an internal temperature of 135 degrees F. When the roast is close to finished, remove the Yorkshire pudding mixture from the refrigerator to allow it to come close to room temperature. Then, remove the pan from the oven and allow the meat to rest at least 20 minutes before slicing.
• To finish the Yorkshire pudding: Raise the temperature of the oven to 400 degrees F and place the baking dish for the Yorkshire pudding inside.
• Whisk all of the warm milk and some of the melted butter into the batter. When the baking dish is hot, carefully remove it from the oven and quickly add the remaining melted butter to the dish. Pour the batter over the butter and place the dish in the center of the oven. Bake in the oven until golden brown and puffy, 30 minutes. Cut into 8 wedges and serve immediately with a slice of prime rib and some of the pan drippings.

ROAST TOP ROUND BEEF ROAST WITH YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• To make the Yorkshire Pudding batter, in a bowl, combine the flour and salt. In another bowl, beat the eggs. Add the milk and gradually add to the flour, mixing to make a thin, smooth batter, being careful not to over mix. Let rest for at least 1 hour at room temperature, or for several hours in the refrigerator (bringing to room temperature before cooking).
• Put the roast in a small roasting pan, bone side down. With a small sharp knife, make sixteen 1/2-inch-deep slits in the meaty side of the roast. Insert 1 garlic clove into each slit, pressing into the meat. Pinch with your thumb and index finger to close the openings. Combine the chopped thyme, salt, Essence, and pepper in a small bowl. Slowly stir in the oil to make a paste. Rub the paste on both sides of the roast, and place the thyme sprigs under the roast. Roast for 1 hour. Remove the pan from the oven and turn the roast for even browning. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F and continue roasting until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the roast reads 125 to 130 degrees F for medium-rare, about 45 minutes, or 140 degrees F for medium, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and let the roast stand for 15 minutes before carving.
• While the roast is resting, make the Yorkshire Pudding in the same roasting pan.
• Increase the oven temperature to 450 degrees F. Pour off all but 3 tablespoons of the hot pan drippings, adding hot melted butter as necessary to make the correct measure. Place the pan in the oven to stay hot while the oven comes to temperature.
• Pour the prepared batter into the dish and bake, without opening the oven door, until risen and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with the carved rib roast.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.

STUFFED BABY YORKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, milk, flour, and salt together in a mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth and glistening. Set aside to rest for 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, place 1 tablespoon oil in each cup of a muffin pan. Place the pan in the oven while the batter is resting.
• Whisk the batter briefly. Remove the pan from the oven, and immediately fill each cup 3/4 full with batter. The oil should be sufficiently hot so the batter sizzles and begins cooking. Spoon about 1 teaspoon roast beef and 1 teaspoon of horseradish into the center of each cup.
• Immediately return pan to the oven, and bake until puffed and golden, about 12 minutes. Remove Yorkshire puddings from the pan and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve hot with prepared au jus.

OLD ENGLAND TRADITIONAL ROAST BEEF AND YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Steps:

• Combined method for cooking the Roast Beef and the Yorkshire Pudding:.
• Preheat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7.
• Put the joint of beef into a shallow baking tray or tin.
• Season the meat to taste with a little salt and black pepper, and English mustard powder if using.
• Melt half of the beef dripping and pour over the meat and seasoning.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 30 minutes and then reduce the heat to 190C/375F/Gas 5 for a further 1 1/2 hours. This will give you rare roast beef in the middle.
• When cooked, put the meat in a warm place to rest for 20-30 minutes before carving and serving, and then turn up the heat to 240C,475F or gas mark 9.
• Pour the remainder of the beef dripping into a cake baking tray (The type of baking tray used to make small cakes / muffins). Put the tray, with a little bit of dripping in each of the depressions in the tray, into the oven for 3 minutes or until you see the dripping smoke.
• Remove from the oven and pour 2 tablespoons of the Yorkshire Pudding batter (see below for batter recipe) into each cake depression and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until well puffed up and golden brown. DO NOT Open the door for the first 10 minutes!
• Meanwhile carve and portion the beef on to hot plates, and make a gravy using the juices left in the roasting. As soon as the Yorkshire pudding is ready, serve, with mustard and horseradish sauce, roast potatoes and seasonal vegetables.
• To make the Yorkshire Pudding Mixture (Batter):.
• Sift the flour into a large bowl.
• and add the beaten eggs into the centre of the heap of flour.
• Mix the water and the milk together in a jug. Pour the mixture slowly onto the flour and egg. As you start to pour the water/milk slowly beat the mixture together with a whisk. Add the salt and continue to beat. The puddings will be lighter if the batter includes a little air.
• Once all the ingredients have been beaten together leave to stand, covered by a cloth, for 40 minutes or so.
• Now you are at 'step 8' in the main cooking method. Your oven should be very hot and your tray for the puddings very hot.
• Tip: The bigger the joint, the better the meat, and it should always be cooked on the bone. The meat should have a good covering of fat, be dark red in colour (which shows it has been hung properly), and have a good marbling of fat throughout.
• Sprinkling some English mustard powder over the top of the meat gives a great crust and a fabulous taste.

MINI YORKSHIRE PUDDINGS WITH ROAST BEEF AND QUICK CARAMELIZED ONIONS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place a 24-cup mini muffin tin on a rimmed baking sheet. Add enough vegetable oil to each muffin cup to coat the bottom. Transfer to the oven so it gets hot as the oven preheats.
• Whisk together the milk and eggs in a large liquid measuring cup. Next add the flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper and whisk to combine. Set aside.
• Heat a saute pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and the onions. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions begin to soften. Stir in the sugar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Continue cooking until the onions are slightly browned and softened, about 10 minutes. Turn the heat off and set aside.
• Carefully remove the hot pans from the oven. Add the batter to the muffin cups, filling each about three-quarters full. Bake until the puddings are puffed and golden brown, about 20 minutes; do not open the oven before the 20 minutes are up or the puddings could collapse.
• Transfer the Yorkshire puddings to a serving platter. Top each with some of the caramelized onions. Slice or tear the roast beef slices in half or in thirds and arrange the pieces on top of the onions. Top each with about 1/4 teaspoon of the horseradish sauce and sprinkle with the chopped chives.
