Toad in the Hole Recipe

I love Toad in the Hole. It is so easy to make and so yummy. In the UK we had it with frozen sweetcorn, but we can't seem to get that here - only tinned which I don't really like. We will have to grow our own.

For 2 people

150g plain flour
2 eggs
160ml whole milk and water mixed (half and half) or skimmed milk
A pinch of salt
4 sausages
1/2 onion per person (optional)

Preheat your oven to 220°C
You can use the sausages whole or cut in to pieces (I normally cut in to pieces)
Oil your dish with -  (my dish is 15x25 cm or sometimes I use 2x le creuset 18cm small ceramic dishes)
Add the sausages (and onion if using) and put in the preheated oven for about 10 mins until the sausage just starts to brown/

While cooking the sausages make the batter mix (or make it in advance for a better rise)
Weigh the flour in to a bowl.
Add the salt and eggs. Stir lightly and add some of the milk water mix and mix some more until the mixture is smooth. Add more of the milk and water until the mixture is the consistancy of thick cream.

Once the sausages are brown pour the batter over them and quickly return the dish to the oven.
Cook for 30 mins or until the batter is risen and browned.

Serve with ketchup (not if your name is Doug) and some veg.
