Notes
- The most important tip here is to not open the door, certainly not for the first 20 minutes, because the batter will sink if you do.
- Like when making Yorkshire puddings, it's best to use a metal tin to make them rather than a ceramic dish, as it gets hotter which is key to them getting crispy.
- Some say that adding a little mayo to your Yorkshire pudding batter can help them rise more, but it sounds a bit odd so I have never tried it myself.
- You can add some sprigs of thyme at the same time as the onion for extra flavour. Just take them out before you pour the batter in.
