We all have our own recipes, but here is mine...
How to make perfect Yorkshire puds every time. A VERY easy failsafe recipe that WILL work each and every time.
1. Using muffin tins (large or small). Put a small amount of duck/goose fat in each and put them into an oven set at its highest temp (mine goes to about 300 deg).
Put them on the middle or lowest shelf (or both if doing 2 lots).
2. Get 3 equal/identical sized cups. In the first cup put in 2 or 3 eggs. See where they come up to in the cup (how much they fill it). In the second cup put plain (must be plain) flour in to the same height as the eggs. In the third cup put in milk (I use semi) again to exactly the same height.
In other words make them all the same quantity. It's the eggs that determine the amount of flour and milk. If the eggs come to 2 inches up the cup then the milk and flour comes to 2 inches deep too.
3. Put all 3 into a jug (put the eggs or milk in first or the flour will need scraping from the corners). Whisk until creamy smooth and all mixed in. Or what I prefer is to put all the ingredients into a sport protein bottle (with the mixing spring ball in) and shake it like mad for a couple of mins.
4. When the oven is at temp (about 10 mins) turn it down to about 250 deg. Then open the door and pour the mix in about 1/2 -2/3 full into each well. Do this quickly and close the door as soon as you can.
5. Watch them cook and rise, and they should be done in about 15 mins. DO NOT open the door until they are brown.
I promise these will be perfect.
Sometimes it's better to make the mixture the night before and keep it in the fridge.
You could use frylight instead of fat but they stick a little and look more like buns than yorks (like the ones on the bottom shelf in my photo), but still taste amazing.
