She is so damn smart, i wouldn't put it past being her . I am not convinced he he!

Yay, so great. All i have to do now is meringues and that's all my current cooking fears conquered

Anyone who is reading this and thinks it's really difficult, it's totally not! Try it! I want more, they were so fluffy.

3 desertspoons of plain flour,pinch of salt, sifted through a sieve
make a well in the middle of the flour, crack an egg into it,beat it until its absorbed into the flour.Keep adding a small amount of milk now and again until the mix resembles thick whipped cream,then start adding small amounts of cold water ,beating it all the time until its a thin sauce. I then put it into the fridge to get as cold as possible.When I'm ready to cook it I always put some fat into the bun tins and put in the oven until very hot.Then spoon cold mixture into the hot tin so it sizzles as it hits the hot fat.Straight into a fairly hot oven so they will rise up beautifully.When cooked you can turn out and when cold freeze they will be just like Auntie Bessies.I have never in 40 odd years had a bad yorkie pud.Secret is very cold mixture and fairly hot fat in hot oven

Hmmm they were nice, bit greasy

I think because they took 20 mins to cook,the bottom took longer to spring up so it soaked up more oil if that makes sense.

Conclusion - it worked well, but not to full potential .Think it would be easier to parcook some, or just make fresh batter! As Roy Walker said " it's good but it's not right!"

Not liking oven chips, I recently bought a deep fat fryer to have lovely home-made chips once in a while. I now wanna try my own battered sausages so I can use better quality ones than the cheap muck the local chippy probably use.

I've bought some batter mix, but there's just one thing I'm not sure about... do you need to pre cook the sausages at all before battering or do you just coat them uncooked?

Thanks.

!!!!! them and coat with flour then batter, flour, batter (double dip is best IYKWIM) then put them in at 140 degrees for about 7 mins take them out and drain then heat oil up to 180 degrees and put them in for another couple of minutes or when golden brown
