I have been hearing about Yorkshire pudding ever since I became obsessed with Dr Who, and started learning everything I could about England, especially their foods. I was a bit indimidated when I first decided to try my hand at this dish - but the results were supper easy and really yummy.

This dish is best made with some form of meat (preferably a beef or pork), however for the vegetarians on my list I had great success using a bit of butter and clove in place of the meat drippings.


* 1-1/3 cups eggs
* 1-1/3 cups milk
* 2/3 pinch salt
* 1-1/3 cups all-purpose flour
* 1/3 cup pan meat drippings

Beat eggs in bowl, then add milk and combine until smooth.
Add this mixture to the flour and mix again just until smooth.
Cover batter with cling wrap and place in the fridge for an hour

Pre-heat oven at 425 for 10 minutes
But drippings (or butter) into tins - basically you only need enough to cover the bottom of each recess in your tin.
Place the tin in the oven for ten minutes to get hot (at this point the only thing in the tins should be the drippings.)
Pull the tins out and fill each recess 3/4 of the way with your batter.
Cook for 15 - 20 minutes (or until they get tall and golden)

We really liked this dish - I had it with a bit of pork tenderloin and D had it with buttered mushrooms over top (ok I admit it, I had a bit of the mushrooms as well.)
It was yummy (D couldn't get enough) and easy to make.
