The method

Step by step

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F).
About 5 min
2
In a large bowl, whisk together the plain flour, salt, and black pepper for the batter.
About 1 min
3
In a separate bowl, lightly beat the eggs, then gradually whisk them into the dry ingredients until smooth.
About 2 min
Cook’s note: Ensure there are no lumps in the batter for a smooth Yorkshire pudding.
4
Slowly add the milk to the batter, whisking continuously until you have a smooth, thin consistency.
About 2 min
5
Place the vegetable oil into a large oven-safe baking dish or roasting tin (approximately 25x35cm).
6
Add the pork sausages to the dish, ensuring they are separated.
About 1 min
7
Carefully place the dish with the oil and sausages into the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes, until the sausages are browned and the oil is very hot.
About 15 min
Cook’s note: Getting the oil very hot is crucial for the batter to rise properly.
8
Remove the hot dish from the oven and carefully pour the batter evenly over and around the sausages.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Work quickly to retain the heat in the dish.
9
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the batter is golden brown, well-risen, and crisp.
About 25 min
Cook’s note: Avoid opening the oven door during the first 15 minutes of baking, as this can cause the pudding to collapse.
10
Serve immediately with your favorite gravy and vegetables.
