I lived with a Yorkshire man for 5 years - his recipe was 2 tablespoons of plain flour, 2 tablespoons of dried milk, and one egg. Add enough water to make a runny batter - about the consistency of buttermilk - and then leave to stand at room temperatuee for at least 30 minutes. The oven must be hot hot hot (but be careful - I once had the fire brigade visit me when the pan was a little too hot and caught alight!) Also, use vegetable oil, not olive oil - the olive oil doesnt heat to a high enough temperature. And once the pudding is in the oven, don't open the door until its done, otherwise it will deflate and be flat.....
For an interesting alternative, try Toad-in-the-Hole - put half a dozen sausages (big thick English pork ones are best) in a pan, and when brown on one side, turn them over and pour in the batter - serve with green vegetables and gravey - its yummy!!

Yorkshire pudding is called a 'pudding' because in one UK sense of the word it describes a savory dish; another example of this usage is steak and kidney pudding, which is similar to, but not the same as, steak and kidney pie).
It is made using a batter of flour, milk, and eggs, like a pancake, but instead of frying, the batter is poured into a greased or oiled baking dish or muffin tray and baked in an oven until it rises and becomes puffed, crisp and brown.

Yorkshire pudding requires milk, flour, eggs and a pinch of salt, along with some sort of fat. This can be vegetable oil, butter or lard, but if you're cooking a roast, then the drippings off the roast will be idea.

Heat oil in yorkshire pudding tins at about 200 degrees Celsius until the oil is very hot. Add mix to oil - it should sizzle straight away. Return to oven and cook for 15-20 minutes.
