Ingredients

  • ½ cup leftover roast beef
  • ½ cup leftover roast potatoes
  • ½ cup cooked peas
  • ½ cup cooked Brussels sprouts
  • 150 g plain flour
  • 185 ml milk
  • 2 eggs
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 ½ tablespoon vegetable oil

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius (430 Fahrenheit).
  2. Drizzle the oil in a square roasting tray - mine is 23 cm / 9 inches.
  3. Pop the tray in the oven for 5 minutes until the oil is smoking hot.
  4. Cut the beef, roast potatoes and brussels sprouts into small cubes.
  5. In a large bowl, sift the flour, make a well in the middle, and crack the eggs in.
  6. Use a fork to mix them well.
  7. Slowly pour the milk in, whisking well to get a smooth batter - pass the batter through a sieve if necessary.
  8. Season the batter with salt and pepper.
  9. Carefully remove the tray from the oven, and spread the beef, potatoes, peas and brussels sprouts in a single layer.
  10. Pour over the batter, and return the tray to the oven for 20-25 minutes until golden and nicely risen.

Notes

  • It is crucial that the oven is well preheated and the oil is very hot before the dish goes in - a cold oil will flatten the Yorkshire pudding, and make it rather soggy and chewy.
  • Do not open the oven before 20 minutes, as this will deflate the dish and prevent it from turning nicely crispy.
  • The oven temperature might seem too high, but it's the right temperature for this kind of dish, do not lower it!
