Toad in the Hole

mmmm. Traditional british food, I cook this with veg sausages and onion gravy, but it works with good pork sausages too. I will warn that yorkshire pudding doesnt work quite as well in drier climates, but a tip I have heard is to add a pan of water to the bottom of your oven while baking. Never tried it myself being in the U.K, but give it a go.
