Wartime Yorkshire Pudding

Another good recipe from the Ministry of Food. Yorkshire Pudding is a baked pudding made from a batter of eggs, flour, and milk or water and is a popular accompaniment to British traditional roast dinners... especially roast beef
Although not as big and fluffy as the modern day Yorkshire pudding.. which uses multiple eggs.. this 1 egg version is just as tasty although a little stodgy.. The family loved them though... I made eight and two disappeared before I managed to take a photo
1 egg (reconstituted)
4 oz. national flour
1/4 pint of milk
Salt
1 knob dripping or fat

  • Beat egg well. 
  • Mix flour and salt. 
  • Make a hole in the centre and put in the egg and sufficient milk to make a stiff mixture. 
  • Beat well, add the rest of the milk, put aside for one hour. 
  • Make the fat smoking hot in a baking tin and pour in the batter. 
  • Cook in a brisk oven for about 30 minutes.
