Toad in the Hole – Sausages and Yorkshire Pudding

Sounds weird eh? Named after the way it looks with the sausages poking out of the Yorkshire pudding, I love Yorkshire pudding, it’s weird, it’s soggy and crispy all at once, and it’s not a pudding, it’s savoury.. Anyway to make it you need some lard or oil for the pan, eggs, flour and milk […]
