Yorkshire pudding

Roast beef's companion

Yorkshire pudding is a British side dish made from a batter of eggs, flour, and milk baked until puffed and golden.

Despite the name, it's not a dessert—it's savory, traditionally served with roast beef and gravy.

The batter is poured into hot fat in a pan, creating a crisp exterior and hollow center.

Sunday roast isn't complete without Yorkshire pudding.
