Bit Worried About The Yorkshires...

[Smowball]

I followed the recipe on NoM's thread last week and most people said equal amounts of milk, flour and eggs so I've filled a mug with flour, then with milk, but when I've gone to do the eggs the cup has taken 5 eggs to fill it! Isn't that too much??

[ummmm]

That's why I always do the eggs first.

I use a measuring cup. 3 eggs is always plenty.

[ummmm]

Oh...and if you've made too much remember Yorkshires freeze really well.

[Smowball]

I've never thought of freezing them

[ummmm]

Aunt Bessie freezes them :-)

Honest...freezing them doesn't make any difference to them imo. They only take 5 mins or so to reheat from frozen.

[Smowball]

They're in the oven so fingers crossed!

[Smowball]

They were great!

[chelle7272]

Dipped in gravy and eaten as snacks mmmmm

Hope you are feeling okay, Islay....

[Smowball]

I made far too many so we have leftover Yorkies and roasties for supper with gravy!

[chelle7272]

Yum yum, starving now..:)

[DTCwordfan]

some sausages or bacon with them....?

[Smowball]

Honestly that recipe on NoM's post last week worked perfectly

[Islay]

Or re heat gently dusted with icing sugar and when warm put a blob of icecream on it yummmmm

Eggs vary in size so go for the volume not the number.

[Smowball]

I did Eddie. It was a lot of eggs (5) but the exact same volume as the milk and flour. Worked a treat!!

[Birdfeeder]

what was the recipe please, I can't find NoM's thread

[woofgang]

equal volumes of plain flour, milk and egg and a pinch of salt. Whisk together and let stand in the fridge for about 30 minutes. meanwhile put a little of your chosen oil or fat, make sure its one you can deep fry in, it needs to get very hot, in your tin and heat it in a hot oven till it smokes. remove from the oven and quickly pour in the batter. Give the batter a stir first. cook for 10 to twenty minutes depending on the size of the yorkies, don’t open the oven door till you think they are nearly done.
