Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 140 g plain flour
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 3 eggs
  • 300 ml skimmed milk (or mixture of milk/ water (see note below))
  • 2 tbsp rapeseed oil
  • 8 good quality pork sausages

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 220℃ (200℃ fan)/400°F/gas mark 7. Place the flour in a mixing bowl with the salt and make a well in the centre.
  • Drop the eggs into the well and add about 100ml/4fl oz (½ cup) milk. Using a balloon whisk, beat the eggs and milk together gradually incorporating the flour. Continue whisking until you have a smooth thick batter.
  • Gradually beat in the remaining milk and set aside until required.
  • Heat the oil in a large shallow baking dish for 5 minutes. Remove from the oven and gently tilt the pan so that the oil coats the base and a little way up the sides of the dish.
  • Add the sausages and return to the oven for 10 minutes.
  • Working quickly, remove the dish from the oven and pour in the batter all in one go. Quickly return to the oven. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the batter is puffed up, golden brown and crispy.
  • Serve immediately.
