Yorkshire Pudding – The Welcome Addition To A Roast
There are a limited number of ingredients in Yorkshire Pudding recipes. All it takes is meat drippings from a roast and a basic light batter of egg, flour, milk, water, salt and pepper. The secret to a traditional English Yorkshire Pudding is the light batter.
How To Prepare A Traditional Yorkshire Pudding (Serves Four To Eight)
While your roast is “resting” before serving, begin the Yorkshire Pudding. You will need a muffin or popover pan, a medium sized mixing bowl and hand or electric beater. Place the muffin or popover pan in the oven to preheat.
To avoid batter sticking to the pan, lightly brush each muffin cup with melted butter. This also adds a nice flavor.
In a medium bowl, add 1 cup of pre-sifted flour, 1 egg, 1/2 cup of milk, 1/2 cup of water and salt and pepper to taste. Place about 1 to 2 tablespoons of meat drippings in the bottom of each muffin cup and place in a preheated oven for about 5 minutes. Remove and add batter. Return to the oven and cook until edges of pudding are lightly browned and the top is puffy.
