EEEEeee, we bloomin’ love a Sunday Roast here at The Yorkshireman. And, if you’re going to do it, do it right. It doesn’t get much more right than James Martin’s Yorkshire Pudding recipe. The star of Saturday morning cooking shows, Michelin-starred chef and proud Yorkshireman has the ultimate puds for your roast with all the fluffy, no nonsense goodness you’d expect from a proud Yorkshireman.
Yorkshire puddings are one of those foods that elevate most meals including dessert – if you’re one of those with a sweet tooth. But there are so many ways it can go wrong when making your own. From flat lifeless puds to over baked dry and crunchy ones. Although, if you ask us, stick enough gravy on any of them and they’ll taste good in our eyes.
It’s one of Yorkshire’s favoured traditional foods – and their ain’t many folk we know out there that would say they aren’t a fan. Put it with some delicious carrots, spuds, cauliflower cheese, roast potatoes and lashing of gravy and you’re on to a winner.
