How to make the most delicious Yorkshire Pudding?

Yorkshire pudding is a typical English side dish consisting of a baked pudding made from a batter made of eggs, flour, and milk or water.

Its’ amazing versatility allows us to serve it in many ways: as the first course with onion gravy; as the main course with beef and gravy and can also be filled with other ingredients, such as bangers and mash to make a meal.

The Yorkshire Pudding is also part of the Traditional Sunday Roast, so much appreciated by the British!

Check below step by step how to make the most delicious Yorkshire Pudding:

Ingredients:

1 cup eggs
1 cup whole milk
Pinch of salt
1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Method:

Preheat the oven to 220º.C
Mix the eggs and milk in a large bowl and whisk to blend.
Add a pinch of salt and whisk again. Let the mixture stand for few minutes to let the bubbles subside.
Sieve roughly 1/3 of the flour into the mixture and whisk thoroughly to incorporate.
Repeat with another 1/3 of the flour, and then the final 1/3. At this point you should have a thick and creamy, lump-free batter.
Let the batter rest at room temperature for at least 30 minutes;
Place 1/2 teaspoon of vegetable oil into your Pudding Tin and put the tin into the oven until the fat is slightly smoking.
Add 2 tablespoons of cold water to the batter, then whisk again.
Fill each pudding tin with batter, one-third full, and quickly place in the oven.
Bake until the puddings are puffed and golden brown, approximately 20 minutes. Repeat with any remaining batter.
