i will and here it is
your oven must be red hot so they will rise!!
2 large eggs
1 pint of cold milk
6 heaped table spoons of plain flour
pinch of salt
and of course...lard
put small chunk of lard into yorkshire pudding tray and place in top half of oven gas mark5 or 220degrees
whisk eggs and milk and salt,then add flour little by little until you have a smooth consistancy
pour into melted hot fat then place on top shelf in oven and cook until nicely risen and golden brown...good luck xxxx
