When I used to make them I did as my mom and grandma did - after leaving mixture to rest I used to add just a drop more cold water and whisk. Dont make them here in Spain - cooker is crap !!!! Mary in Spain xx

Perfect Yorkshire Pudding (Not my recipe, Caz(???) put this on here before Xmas but I can assure you it IS perfect) EDIT - apologies - it was Jennifer Hughes who put up the recipe, not Caz. My memory is terrible for names. it is a perfect recipe. 1 cup flour 1 cup eggs 1 cup water. Beat well (I put it in a large screw top jar and shake it). Rest in the fridge for at least 2 hours, but the longer the better - I left mine overnight in the fridge) Smoking hot metal dish, half fill, bake at highest heat - perfect! OC

No Helen I can't, I have 3 strapping men to feed, I use a big enough pan it's the right size for the amount of pudding mix, it just won't rise, I've even put baking powder in it! I'm gonna be so upset if todays flops. Gillie xx Yes Linda I do, I do everything a Granny would have done.
