Try it Tuesday – Yorkshire puddings
This week I made dad plus 4s chips and gravy Las Vegas style but added a sparkly mummy twist!
A couple of weeks ago dad plus 4 linked up to #foodiefriday and ever since I have been craving his chips and gravy Las Vegas style, so this week I decided to give them a try and as a sparkly mummy twist I, for only the second time attempted Yorkshire puddings,the only other time I attempted them they was more Yorkshire biscuits than Yorkshire puddings! So I have for years been keeping aunt Bessie in business!
So I had a Google and I found a recipe that claimed to be an ‘award winning perfect Yorkshire pudding recipe‘ – it sounded perfect.
I wanted to make 4 large yorkshires so followed this recipe but halved the ingredients
110g (225g) plain flour
2 (4) eggs – beaten
150ml (300ml) milk
salt and pepper
beef dripping
l started by first putting the oven on high to get it warmed up, I put my wet ingredients in to a bowl and gave them a quick mix with my electric hand blender,and then added my dry ingredients and gave it all a mix. Once the oven was up to heat I put a blob of dripping in to each bit of my big 4 muffin tray and popped it in to the oven to warm up, one the fat had melted and was smoking hot I removed the tray from the oven, poured the batter in and put the tray back in to the oven as quickly as I could. I reduced the temp on the oven down to 200c (fan assisted).
They took about 20mins to cook and they where, in my opinion the yummiest yorkshires EVER !!! And everyone else seemed to agree, sorry aunt Bessie there will be no more frozen Yorkies in this house, it’s all about the fresh sparkly mummy ones now! And they went perfectly with the Las Vegas style gravy,chips and I also threw in some onion rings for good measure!

Oh that looks yummy never thought to add Yorkshire pudding to it know what I making tomorrow now.
They look fab! I havent tried any yorkshire for years after a particularly disastrous toad in the hole incident but I may try again! #foodiefriday
…This looks quite simple. I’ve got some weird fear about making my own, i think it must be really hard and always go for the aunt bessies. might be time to brave it! #foodiefriday
Very glad to see you’ve cracked it with your Yorkshire pudding recipe. They look perfect in the photos! My husband is from Yorkshire so he makes them in our house – but even he gets them wrong sometimes. It’s easy for them to turn out different each time! #foodiefriday
This looks way better than some of those yorkshires on GBBO this year! Maybe I should stop using Aunt Bessie’s and feel the fear and make my own anyway! x
My mam used to make Yorkshire puds with our Sunday lunch every weekend but I’m ashamed to say I’ve never tried them! Yours look absolutely amazing (and dare I say, better than my mums…. shhhh!) #foodiefriday
Ooh! Those yorkshires do look good, although I don’t think I could eat them with chips. I tend to buy Aunt Bessie’s ones for the Sunday lunch too, although I do make a veggie toad in the hole from scratch. #foodiefriday
Oh I love yorkshires, but I’ve never made them myself. I usually use good old aunt bessies as well. Yours look fab!x #foodiefriday
You can’t beat a good yorkie – Hubby is in charge of making them in our house as mine always end up looking like biscuits! #foodiefriday
Oh I love a Yorkshire. Homemade is always better than shopbought!
These look incredible!

So this is a true story – one of my lifelong aims is to make a kickass yorkie….still never happened! My other half reckons it’s heating the pan with a little oil really high in the oven. I think I should give your recipe a go 🙂 They look scrumptious, thanks for hosting #foodiefriday x
Hot fat is definitely key to good Yorkshires!!!
We made it this week with giant Yorkshire puddings and put the chips and gravy in the middle it was so yummy. #foodiefriday
It’s a marriage made in heaven isn’t it !!!
