Toad in the Hole
Toad in the hole is a baked Yorkshire pudding or thick pastry round, with sausages or pieces of meat in it. This recipe is for a sausage toad. A further variation is made using fine chopped potatoes in a pudding-basin with a lump of meat in the centre, and then boiling or steaming.

Method 5 steps
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Bake the sausages with the oil in a roasting pan for 10 minutes. This cooks the sausages and allows the pan to heat up.
Add batter to the hot pan. The oil should sizzle as the cold batter is added to the pan.
Bake in the oven for about 40–45 minutes. The oven door must not be opened while the batter is baking; once the crust has risen and browned, you can open the oven. The outside should be crispy and the inside should be firm.
Remove and serve hot.
