Gordon Ramsay's Yorkshire Pudding Recipe

 If you love a good roast dinner, you can't go wrong with a Yorkshire pudding recipe. The fluffy, golden puddings are an absolute classic, and make the perfect side dish for your roast dinners.

 

There is a secret to every Yorkshire pudding recipe when it comes to getting Yorkshire puddings to rise properly. In fact there are two. The first is to let the batter rest once you've mixed and the second is to heat your tin and beef dripping so it's piping hot when you do pour the batter in. It is sometimes better to make the Yorkshire pudding recipe batter the night before and leave it at room temperature until it’s needed the following day. You don’t need to do this, but make sure you rest yours for at least an hour before you cook to ensure a good rise and deliciously light puddings.

 

Ingredients:

3 large eggs

125g plain flour

1⁄2 tsp sea salt

150ml whole milk

Vegetable oil (or beef dripping)

 

Method:

Step 1:

Beat the eggs together in a large bowl using a balloon whisk. Sift the flour with the salt, then gradually beat this into the eggs to make a smooth batter. Whisk in the milk until combined. Cover and leave to stand at room temperature for about 1 hour.

 

Step 2:

Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/Gas 7. Put 2 teaspoons of vegetable oil into each compartment of two 4-hole Yorkshire pudding tins (see Tip). If you only have one tin, you’ll have to do this in two batches. Place the tin in the oven for 12–15 minutes to heat up the oil and tins until very hot. This is important for the rise.

 

Step 3:

Carefully remove the hot tins from the oven and quickly pour in the batter – it should sizzle as it hits the oil. Return to the oven as fast as you can and bake for 18–20 minutes until well risen and golden brown. Don’t be tempted to open the oven door during cooking or they may collapse.

 

Step 4:

Serve immediately with roast beef with caramelised onion gravy and all the trimmings, perfect for Sunday lunch.

 

Tip: If you don’t have Yorkshire pudding tins, you can use a muffin tin instead. Just use less oil per hole and reduce the cooking time slightly.
