Swedish Yorkshire Pudding (No, That'S Not A Typo!)
- 5 1/4 ounces dry weight flour
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 large egg
- 10 fluid ounces milk
- beef drippings
- Also need 1 book of Viking drinking songs.
- Sift the flour and salt into a bowl.
- Make a well in the centre, tip in the egg and a little of the milk.
- Beat well, and then gradually mix in the flour, adding more of the milk until batter is smooth (the consistency of thick cream).
- Sing Viking drinking song while allowing the mixture to stand for approximately 30 minutes.
- Place a teaspoon of beef dripping in small tin (s) or your brother's best battle helmet.
- Heat the tin (s)/helmet (s) in the oven at 220 Celsius/ 325 Fahrenheit for 5 minutes until the fat is smoking.
- Sing a 5-minute Viking drinking song while it is heating.
- Remove the tin (s)/helmet (s) from the oven and pour in the batter and put back into the oven.
- Bake until well-risen, puffy and golden brown (small ones take 10 to 15 minutes, large ones 40 to 45 minutes if cooked in one tin).
- In the meantime, sing lots more drinking songs and go pillage the nearest village, but make sure you get back in time to check how the cooking is going.
- Serve 1 or 2 puddings along with meat and vegetables and lashings of gravy.
- Sleep after a hard day's activity and dream of Valhalla and immortality in the hall of the Scandinavian gods.
