TESCO YORKSHIRE PUDDING

Tesco Yorkshire puddings are OKAY (in my opinion). I have only rated three stars as 'home made are the best'


Yorkshire pudding is so easy to make, but unfortunately I am a lazy cook, and sometimes like to put the meat and potatoes in the oven and forget everything else until 20 minutes before I serve the usual Sunday roast. When the timer goes off I pop the vegetables on, put the timer on for fifteen minutes and again when the bell sounds put the Tesco Yorkshire puddings in the over for about 4 minutes.

There are 46 calories per pudding so not too fattening! Just over one gram in fat and a pinch of salt.

All Yorkshire puddings are basically flour eggs and milk with a little salt. Therefore, Yorkshire pudding is easy to make, even for the novice chef (cook). My own, are by far the best and if you pop in an extra egg or two they taste smashing.

These Yorkshires come in a pack of 12 for about £1. The bottom on the puddings is a little greasy, but I believe the secret to a lovely Yorkshire is the gravy! I have tried aunt Bessie's and lots of other supermarket own brands, but I will stick to the fact these are the best value for money.

My advice would have to be 'MAKE YOUR OWN', but if you don't have the time or inclination to be bothered, go for the cheapest and make a smashing beef gravy.

Another negative for all bought Yorkshire puddings is they are always soggy compared to homemade. You don't seem to get the crispy edges.

Try these Yorkshire puddings with warm cocktails sausages and some nice vegetables and roast potatoes, but don't forget the gravy.

I always add Tesco Yorkshire puddings to any roast dinner, chicken lamb or pork, as it no only fills you up, but tastes great too.

In Yorkshire they used to serve this as a starter, so I have been told. This was to fill people up before the main course, so in theory saving money on smaller portions.

I hope you try them at some stage, as I am sure you won't be disappointed. What I do find slightly annoying is all these pre cooked Yorkshire pudding have been coated in fat, so you cannot use them as a sweet. Yuk! I hear you say. Make your own and add a little sugar to the mix, then fill with fresh fruit and top with cream (delicious)!

I hope you have found some of these points useful and once again thank you for reading.

P.s. To obtain the perfect gravy to compliment these puddings don't forget to add a little beef fat to the gravy.

Summary: REMEMBER IT'S THE GRAVY THAT COMPLIMENTS THE YORKSHIRE PUDS!
