Yorkshire Puddings

Ingredients

100g/3½oz flour
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground coriander seeds
1 egg (beaten)
300ml/10fl oz milk
cold water
2 tbsp dripping

You will need Yorkshire pudding tins for this recipe.

Method

1. Sieve the flour, salt and coriander powder into a bowl.
2. Add the beaten eggs and half the milk. Beat well for 5 minutes or until the batter is smooth.
3. Beat in remaining milk and enough cold water to give thick creamy consistency.
4. Leave the batter to stand for 30 minutes.
5. Heat dripping in Yorkshire pudding tins until very hot. The fat should be so hot that when the batter is poured in it sizzles.
6. Sprinkle a few drops of cold water into the batter and pour into the hot fat (this creates steam helping the batter to rise).
7. Cook for 15-20 minutes in a preheated oven 220C/425F/Gas 7, until puffed and golden with a soft centre.
8. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
