New Year Yorkshire Puddings

I decided to greet 2026 with a very decent supper at home.

Chateaubriand with Roast Potatoes, Homemade Cauliflower Cheese with Leeks & ..

Yorkshire Puddings

Not a fan of a Yorkshire on the Christmas lunch plate preferring it instead to make an appearance alongside some beef. With English Mustard or Horseradish. 

Or both, of course.

The Roast Spuds .. Your favourite way

The Yorkshire Puds .. Makes 8 large Yorkies

125g Plain Flour
2 Eggs
300ml Whole Milk
Seasoning
4 tbsp Duck or Goose Fat

Sieve the flour into a large bowl before adding the eggs & whisk

Slowly introduce the milk a little at a time & whisk until you get a smooth batter

Season with salt & pepper 

Pour the batter into a jug & then cover with cling film before putting it into the fridge for at least 30 minutes

Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6

Put half a tablespoon of fat into each of eight holes of a deep tin

Put the tray into the preheated oven for around 10 to minutes to heat

Pour the cool batter into the receptacles & return to the oven. 

Cook for 20 minutes without opening the door until gloriously golden & risen

I managed just one & froze the remainders for another day.

A splendid way to start a New Year.
