Starting with the eggs, whether you us 2, 3 or more crack them in a cup. Then you want the exact same measure of plain flour and milk. Preheated oven of 200 degrees, tray with beef fat placed in in oven for 5 minutes. Then add mixture close oven and do not open for 20 minutes. You will have light and tasty yorkshires

The 'secret' is full fat beef dripping in your baking trays. Preferably ones that have never been washed.

"8 eggs

wrong the true yorkshire pudding mix was with very little milk as it was a scarce commodity

this recipe makes 8 and is close to the original mix

-100g plain flour

-3 large eggs

-150ml whole milk

-Pinch of salt

-1 tsp beef dripping per Yorkshire pudding

you will find instructions from here

Also controversial moment….

Proper Yorkshire Pudding is poured into a flat tin to rise around the edge, not these modern cake tins, you then get a slice not a “pudding”…..discuss

Not that I have suggested this is the true Yorkshire recipe… it does produce great puddings and works every time …. and is to be fair (like many others have recommended) the great Yorkshireman James Martins recipe, which he of course inherited from his very Yorkshire Granny.

The other great thing about it is it’s really easy to remember - 8:8:1

Delia's

Use fully leaded dripping or goose fat in the tray - none of this oil nonsense

Big tip - make mix the day before & let it rest overnight in the kitchen - this actually goes for pancake & any batter mix,

Get the fat Uber hot - as hot as you dare -you want it almost at flashpoint - blue smokey haze as a minimum...

Dont be tempted to have a peek & open the oven door before you take them out

You're welcome - thank me later

Equal measures of eggs, flour and milk. A pinch of salt.

Mix together and leave overnight.

Yorkshire pudding tray, with oil in a hot oven 200+ until smoking. Put in the batter, back in the oven and don't open it for a good 25 mins.

I always have the fan off until they rise and then turn it back on to finish them off.
