Ingredients
240gplain flour
4eggs
350mlsemi skimmed milk
Pinchof salt
2tbspoilI use sunflower oil
12chipolata sausages*
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 200C (fan)/220C/Gas Mark 7.
Add oil to a 20cm x 30cm metal baking tin and place in the oven.
After 5 minutes, add the sausages to the tin and return to the oven for a further 5 to 10 minutes until the sausages are browned and the oil is smoking hot.
Whilst the tin is heating up and the sausages are browning you can prepare the batter.
Place the flour in a large mixing bowl and add seasoning as preferred (salt and pepper).
Crack the eggs into the flour and whisk either by hand or with an electric mixer.
Slowly add the milk, a little at a time, until it is well mixed.
Add the batter to the hot baking tin. Try and do this bit really quickly so that the tin and the oven don't lose too much heat.
Cook in the oven for 30 minutes, until the batter is well risen and golden brown in colour.
Notes
*you can substitute the 12 chipolatas for 8 larger sausages.It's best to use a metal tin instead of a stone dish.Use an oil that can withstand high heats - sunflower is a good option.
