    Ingredients

    • 300ml liquid water milk beer or a combination
    • 125g plain flour
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • 2 large eggs (free range preferable)
    •  ground black pepper
    • 450g (6-8) sausages of your choice
    • 2 tablespoons lard or cooking oil

    Method

    1. The basic recipe can be enhanced in a number of ways by adding more ingredients to the batter mix. Ideas include fresh herbs, onions (either raw or lightly cooked first) or bacon.

    3. Mix the flour and salt in a large bowl. Make a hollow in the centre and add the eggs.
    4. Mix whilst gradually adding the liquid. Use a whisk to beat out any lumps of flour.
    5. Leave the batter to stand.
    6. Heat the oven to 220 degrees (gas mark 7).
    7. Heat the lard or cooking oil in a high sided roasting tin, add the sausages and cook for 10 minutes.
    8. Place the roasting tin over a high flame until the fat smokes (the pan and oil must be very hot), pour in the batter and return to the oven (be careful because the oil can splash).
    9. Bake for 25 - 30 minutes and serve.

    11. Suggested Sausages:
    12. Any robust British classic, Lincolnshire and Cumberland are both excellent. Try it with home made sausages or meatballs

          i would considor myself a reasonably good cook but have always struggled getting 'toad in the hole' right, but this recipe worked to perfection. the only step i skipped was putting the dish over heat to to heat the sausage fat but worked just as well, thank you for a succesful evening meal!!

        Ingredients

        • 6 Pork Sausages (good quality)
        • 1 Tblsp Sunflower Oil or Ground Nut Oil
        • 100 g Plain Flour
        • 2 Large Eggs
        • 100 ml Skimmed Milk
        • To taste Salt and Black Pepper

        Method

        1. 1. Sieve the flour into a bowl.

        3. 2. Mix in the egg and add a touch of salt and pepper.

        5. 3. Add the milk and slowly mix together until the batter is smooth.

        7. 4. Next arrange the sausages in the roasting tin roast for 10 minutes.

        9. 5. Remove the sausages from the oven and place the roasting tin over direct heat (set a medium). If the sausages are not very Fatty, add the tablespoon of oil if you wish.

        11. 6. When the tin is really hot and the oil is beginning to simmer pour in the batter all around the sausages.

        13. 7. Now place the roasting tin straight back in the oven and cook for 30 minutes on 190 C degrees.

        15. 8. When the Yorkshire pudding (flour, milk, egg mixture) is golden brown serve it immediately.

        17. 9. See my recipe to Onion Gravy - it goes really well with the Toad in the hole - SEE : http://www.mydish.co.uk/recipe/1033/onion_gravy_by_kenny

        19. 10. TIP: You could skin the sausages before putting them in the roasting tin. You could also cut each sausages into 2 or 3 pieces as this will help them to cook a bit faster and also make the dish easier to serve.

        21. 11. My sister and I always used to fight over who had got more sausage when mum was serving up. This used to drive mum mad so she struck on the idea of cutting up the sausages before cooking the dish so when she carved up the Toad in the Hole there was more chance of us getting equal amounts (pieses) of sausage.
