    4 oz plain flour
    half a pint of milk
    one egg
    pinch of salt

    The trick is to do it a few hours before you need it - even better if you make it the day before and leave in the fridge.

    It's never failed on me yet - I double the quantities for a large toad in the hole which still isn't big enough for the way my kids can eat it.

    When we have Toad in the Hole [or Frog in the Bog as it's known in our house!] I serve it with a tin of oxtail soup rather than onion gravy. I'm always one for a cooking shortcut!!

    Having read all your posts (and laughed so much!!) today about what to eat for tea tonight I thought I'd make Toad in the Hole. Just rung my Mum for her yorkshire pud recipe (mmm lovely!) and opened the flour bag to find...........................bloody little black crawly things - the dreaded weevil :eek: So flour gone in bin and having to beg kids to go to shop and get me some more :rolleyes:

    Oh no nightmare!! Was going to tell DH about the dreaded flour wombles yesterday but didn't as I think that he'd get me carted off to the loony bin!
