Yorkshire puddings, the must have item on any Sunday roast dish. If it’s not drowning in gravy then something isn’t right.
Yorkshire puddings are light and fluffy and the best to soak up all the gravy on the plate when enjoying a roast meal. Are you the kind that eats them first or leaves them until the end?
The most important thing in this recipe is to make sure you have no lumps, so that the mixture is beautifully smooth and secondly make sure the oil is HOT HOT HOT when you pour the mixture in.
Make sure you leave the oven closed until they are ready to come out as you don’t want to lose any heat by opening and checking as that will have a negative effect.

Yorkshire Puddings
Ingredients
