The
fun thing about a generic recipe like the
Yorkshire pudding is that you can spice it up and experiment with variants. I decided to use a shallow and broad dish (a la
Lawry's) ) to bake the Yorkshire puddings this time around instead of a muffin tray as I felt that a broader pudding would act better as a base for the white sauce and portobello mushrooms.
Ingredients:1. Yorkshire pudding batter2. Baby portobello mushrooms3. Olive oil4. Plain flour5. Butter6. Spices7. Milk8. Cream9. Soup stockMethod:1. Drizzle some olive oil and add a scatter of salt and pepper to the baby portobello mushrooms before pre-grilling them2. Set mushrooms aside and keep warm covered in foil
3. Prepare the white sauce, I use a very simple guesstimate roux of flour and butter
4. Once the roux is slightly brown, add in abit of half-and-half (equal amounts of milk and cream)5. Add salt, pepper and spices (I threw in a bay leaf) to taste6. Thin the sauce with soup stock till desired viscosity is achieved7. Spoon the white sauce into the freshly baked Yorkshire puddings and top off with the grilled portobello mushrooms
Hint: While the sauce is being kept warm on low heat and your Yorkshire puddings are rising away in the oven, use the opportunity to fry your steaks
And there we go, a crisp Yorkshire pudding filled with
tender and
succulent baby portobellos and a
rich and
creamy white sauce.

Just the thing to go with your steak. Serve
hot!
