Ingredients
| 150g | / 5oz organic plain flour |
| Pinch | of traditional sea salt |
| 1 | large free range egg |
| 300ml | / 10 fl oz full fat milk (or 50:50 milk to water) |
| Oil or dripping |
Method
- Sieve the organic plain flour and traditional sea salt into a mixing bowl.
- Add the free range egg and some milk. Whisk together and then add some more milk slowly until you get a nice and consistent batter. Add the rest of the milk and beat well. Leave for half an hour.
- Preheat the oven to 220oC / 425oF. Put a teaspoon of oil or dripping into each well of your Yorkshire pudding tray – we have a lovely pink one shaped in hearts that is really meant for cupcakes.
- When piping hot, quickly pour in the batter three-quarters of the way each well.
- Cook for 10 – 15 minutes until golden-brown. Serve immediately, or we stagger it a bit or the children would eat only the Yorkshire puddings and nothing else.
- Serve with roast beef or on its own with some gravy and a Yorkshire salad.
