Yorkshire Pudding Ingredients
• 1 cup reserved beef fat
• 2 tablespoons peanut oil
• 1 large leek (7 to 8 ounces) trimmed, washed and sliced (2 cups)
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 4 large eggs
• 1 1/2 cups of milk
• 1 1/2 teaspoon of salt
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1/3 cup chopped parsley leaves
Directions: Step four, Yorkshire Pudding:
1. In a large, non-stick and oven-proof skillet, (9-10 inches in diameter and 2 inches deep) heat the reserved fat and the oil. When hot, add the leek and sauté gently for 2 to 3 minutes over medium heat. Meanwhile, whisk the flour and eggs together in a mixing bowl until smooth, then stir in the milk, salt, pepper, and parsley. Add this batter to the leeks in the skillet and bake in the 400 degree F. oven for 30 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees and continue cooking for another 10 minutes.
2. Remove from the oven and it will have risen up the sides of the pan. If any fat has accumulated in the middle of the pudding, baste the pudding with it. Place a flat lid on top of the pudding and invert the pudding onto the lid. Then place a serving dish on top of the inverted pudding and turn it ride side up onto the dish. Serve immediately.
