Yorkshire puds!

Yum yum. I lurve yorkie puds!!!
I use 6 oz of plain flour, 2 eggs, 10 fl oz of milk, and a pinch of pepper. I don't use salt in any of my cooking, but if you want to add a pinch to taste as well, that's fine. Whisk it all together till you have a creamy batter. Leave it to rest for at least half hour, but I tend to make mine in the morning ready for Sunday lunch.
Then the tip is to get the oil in the tin smoking hot. Use a muffin tin, it;s best. Put about a teaspoon - desertspoon in eachbit, then put in the oven for about 10 mins to get really hot. Then carefully take it from the oven and ladel in one ladelfull into each one. It'll sizzle straight away and start cooking. Then once you've filled them all, go round again with a bit more in each one until all the mixture has gone. Then back in the oven straigt away for half hour. They react a bit like souffles while they are cooking, so try not to keep opening the oven door or they'll collapse.
Good luck, and let us know if they beat Nicks!!
Tip - if you want them extra rich and creamy inside, use 3 eggs instead of 2.

Aunt Bessies and batter in a pack!! 
I can see Jamie Oliver rolling his eyes now!!
TBH, I find it much easier, definitely more satisfying, and better tasting to make everything myself. I very rarely have convenience foods. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with them, as they definitely have their uses in this busy world, but I love cooking!

Me too! We're having roast chicken tonight, and the potatoes are peeled and chopped, and the veg - well I cheat with that since having Charlie. I admit that I've starting buying ready prepared veg from the supermarket. So tonight we have carrot batons, fine green beans and curly kale. It's all sealed in the packs in the fridge, and all I've got to do is bung it all in the steamer!
