NANNA'S YORKSHIRE PUDDING



Nanna's Yorkshire Pudding image

These are my nanna's and mother's Yorkshire pudding recipes. I guess the problem with traditional recipes is that they are seldom very accurate. This does not produce a "popover" style Yorkshire pudding like I have found in North American restaurants. The result of the recipes below is the more traditional style--slightly eggy, and "fallen." My siblings and I MUCH prefer it this way. Batter resting time not included in preparation time.

MY MUM'S EASY AND TRADITIONAL ENGLISH YORKSHIRE PUDDING



My Mum's Easy and Traditional English Yorkshire Pudding image

Exactly as the title says, this is my Mum's Traditional English Yorkshire Pudding recipe and it is so easy. It is slightly different from my Toad-in-the-Hole batter recipe, the Yorkshire puddings in this recipe are lighter. (You need a more substantial batter for the addition of sausages!!) I have held off posting this for a while as it is so easy, but it works -please see my photo's! The great thing about this recipe is that it works on equal measures of volume and so there is no weighing or measuring as such. So, if there are only two of you, use a very small cup - if there are a crowd of you, use a big cup, jug or a mug!! Easy! One tip - ALWAYS make sure the oil/fat is SIZZLING hot before you pour in your batter; preheat your tins with the oil/fat before pouring in your batter......that's about it really! NOTE: (I have made the yield between 8-16 individual Yorkshire puddings, depending on the size cup you use. A tip - 4 beaten eggs will make about 8 to 10 Yorkshires.) N.B. My first reviewer quite rightly stated that Yorkshires are often cooked in a large dish/tin; traditionally UNDERNEATH the meat drippings actually!! But, my grandmother & my Mum also made very Traditional Yorkshires in special tins - as photographed; as I understand it, popovers are baked in smaller diameter tins - Yorkshire Pudding Tins have a diameter of at least 4" wide & generally only have 4 holes in a tray!!

Time 35m

Yield 8-16 Yorkshire Puddings, 4-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup beaten egg
1 cup plain flour
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup water
salt
pepper
1 -2 tablespoon cooking oil or 1 -2 tablespoon dripping

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 240C,475F or gas mark 9. (If you are cooking roast beef and/or roast potatoes, make sure the beef has been removed to "rest" before carving and that the potatoes are moved down to the bottom shelf and NEED browning still.).
  • Pour a scant amount of oil or dripping into your Yorkshire Pudding tins.(A large roasting tin can be used too. If you do not have a Yorkshire Pudding tin which has 4 wide and shallow cups of about 4" in diameter, then use a large muffin tin.).
  • Put the tin into the pre-heated oven about 5 minutes before you want to cook the Yorkshire Puddings.
  • Empty the flour, salt & pepper into a large roomy bowl.
  • Make a dip in the centre and add the beaten eggs bit by bit, mixing as you go along.
  • Add the water/milk mixture gradually and whisk in between each addition.
  • Keep whisking until all the liquids have been added. The batter may still be lumpy - this does not matter.
  • Cover and leave to rest for up to 1 hour.
  • Just before cooking, whisk thoroughly again to break down any lumps & add some more air.
  • Carefully take out the tin/s. Pour the batter into the tin/s and QUICKLY return to the oven.
  • Cook for about 20 minutes until well risen and golden brown. DO NOT open the oven in the first 10-15 minutes or they will DROP!
  • If you have two tins cooking, rotate the tins from top to bottom shelves after the 10-15 minutes so they cook evenly.
  • Serve with Roast Beef and lashings of gravy!
  • Can also be served with any Roast Dinner - we love them with Roast Chicken - see photos!

GORDON RAMSAY'S YORKSHIRE PUDDING



Gordon Ramsay's Yorkshire Pudding image

The Yorkshire pudding mix can be made two or three days before and kept in the fridge. Be sure to make the baking tray piping hot, says Mr. Ramsay, so that when the cold batter hits, the puddings will puff up. Once ladled into the tray, sprinkle with coarse salt, and then once in the oven, leave the door closed. "Treat it like a soufflé." Try this with a roast and gravy but they are so good that you can have them with anything! I included the minimum amount of resting time in the prep time and the time for the stove to heat up before cooking in the cooking time. Enjoy!

CLASSIC YORKSHIRE PUDDING



Classic Yorkshire Pudding image

Not a pudding, but a puffed pastry baked with meat drippings. We in the U.S. tend to think Yorkshire pudding and popovers are the same thing. Popovers are hard and very airy. Yorkshire pudding is softer and doesn't rise as high as a popover. Traditionally served with roast beef.

THE BEST YORKSHIRE PUDDING



The Best Yorkshire Pudding image

Our classic pudding is deeply savory, making it the perfect accompaniment for roasted meats. The beef fat adds both richness and flavor but also keeps the pudding from sticking to the pan. Be sure to let the dough rest before baking. This allows the flour to hydrate and create the soft pillowy texture that Yorkshire puddings are known for. It's also important to preheat the pan; the puddings won't rise and puff unless your tin is literally smoking hot.

Time 1h10m

Yield 12 puddings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
3 large eggs
Kosher salt
1/4 cup rendered beef fat (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Whisk the flour, milk, eggs and 2 teaspoons salt in a medium bowl until smooth-be sure not to over mix. Let sit for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, spoon 1 teaspoon beef fat into each hole of a 12-cup muffin tin. Place the tin in the oven and cook until the fat melts and the pan is very hot, 5 to 6 minutes. Working quickly, pour the batter evenly into the muffin tins, filling each tin about halfway. Bake until the puddings are golden brown and very puffed, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
