Mustard Yorkies Recipes

HERBY MUSTARD YORKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. In a bowl, beat the flour and mustard powder with the eggs until you have a smooth, thick batter. Gradually beat in the milk until the batter is the same consistency as single cream, then stir in the herbs, and season.
• Pour a drizzle of oil into each hole of a sturdy 12-hole muffin tin. Put the tin in the oven and heat for 5 mins. Working quickly, remove the tin and pour enough batter into each hole so that it comes two-thirds of the way up the sides. Carefully place the tin back in the oven and cook the puddings for about 20 mins until they are puffed up and brown.

MUSTARD YORKIES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put 1 tsp oil in each well of a 12-hole muffin tin and heat in the oven for 6 mins. Meanwhile, tip the flour and some seasoning into a large, wide jug or a bowl. Beat the eggs with the milk and mustard, then gradually beat into the flour mixture until it makes a smooth batter.
• Pour or ladle the batter into the tin, taking care that it doesn't splatter up and burn you. Bake for 25-30 mins until well risen and golden - try to keep the door closed, as this will help you get a good rise on the Yorkies.

STUFFED BABY YORKIES

Steps:

• Whisk the eggs, milk, flour, and salt together in a mixing bowl until the mixture is smooth and glistening. Set aside to rest for 20 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, place 1 tablespoon oil in each cup of a muffin pan. Place the pan in the oven while the batter is resting.
• Whisk the batter briefly. Remove the pan from the oven, and immediately fill each cup 3/4 full with batter. The oil should be sufficiently hot so the batter sizzles and begins cooking. Spoon about 1 teaspoon roast beef and 1 teaspoon of horseradish into the center of each cup.
• Immediately return pan to the oven, and bake until puffed and golden, about 12 minutes. Remove Yorkshire puddings from the pan and drain on a plate lined with paper towels. Serve hot with prepared au jus.

NO-FAIL YORKIES

Steps:

• Up to 3-4 hrs before cooking, mix together the milk, eggs, flour and 2 tsp salt in a food processor or blender until you have a smooth batter. If you don't have a food processor or blender, whisk the eggs into the flour and salt, then gradually whisk in the milk until smooth. Transfer to a jug, cover and leave at room temperature for at least 15 mins.
• Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and brush 12 holes of a muffin tin with the oil. Heat the tin in the oven for 5 mins, then carefully lift out and quickly pour the batter into the holes. Bake in the oven for 5 mins, then reduce oven temperature to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6 and cook for a further 30 mins until puffed, risen and golden.
