Ingredients

  • 140g plain flour
  • 4 medium eggs
  • 200ml whole milk
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp vegetable oil

Method

  1. Whisk the flour, eggs, milk and salt together to a smooth batter. Pour into a jug and rest for at least 30 minutes.

  2. Heat the oven to 220°C (200°C fan)/gas 7. Put 1 tablespoon of oil into each hole of a 6-hole Yorkshire pudding or deep muffin tin.

  3. Heat the tin in the oven for 10 minutes until the oil is smoking hot.

  4. Working quickly, pour the batter into the hot oil so each hole is about two-thirds full. It should sizzle.

  5. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, without opening the oven door, until risen, golden and crisp. Serve straight away.
