Ingredients
Scale
- 1 egg
- 50 g (1.8 oz) plain flour
- 4 tbsps milk
- 1 tbsp sunflower oil
Instructions
- Batter Preparation: Whisk flour and egg in a mixing bowl until achieving a velvety, uniform consistency, gradually integrating milk to prevent lumps, then season with salt and pepper for enhanced flavor.
- Preheating and Oil Preparation: Ignite the oven to 230°C, positioning a tin with sunflower oil in the highest rack position, allowing the oil to reach an intensely searing temperature, approximately 5-7 minutes.
- Batter Infusion: Gently cascade the seasoned batter into scorching oil-filled compartments, ensuring even distribution and immediate sizzling contact to trigger instant rising mechanism.
- Baking Transformation: Seal the oven and allow puddings to dramatically ascend and caramelize, maintaining a strict 20-25 minute cooking duration without interrupting the thermal environment.
- Serving Presentation: Extract the magnificently inflated, crisp-edged Yorkshire puddings immediately, presenting them at the peak of their golden, architectural splendor for optimal gastronomic enjoyment.
Notes
- Prep Ahead Strategy: Batter can be mixed up to 4 hours in advance, allowing for convenient meal planning and reducing last-minute stress.
- Temperature Precision: Extremely hot oil is crucial for achieving dramatic, crispy rise – use a high 230°C setting without hesitation.
- Batter Smoothness Technique: Whisk thoroughly and add milk gradually to prevent lumps, ensuring a silky, consistent texture throughout.
- Avoid Oven Interference: Never open the oven door during baking to maintain consistent heat, which guarantees perfect puffing and golden-brown exterior.
