England: Toad in the Hole (Sausages Baked in Batter)

No one is sure where the name "Toad in the Hole" comes from ("Toad in a Hole" is also used).

For the "hole", or batter:

  • 4 oz plain white flour

  • 2 small eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 10 fluid ounces milk

For the "toad" or sausage component:

  • 4 100% pork sausages

Essentially, this dish is Yorkshire pudding with sausages in it.

Preheat the oven to 450F. Saute the sausages briefly in a pan to draw off excess fat (or you might grill them if you prefer). Save the fat. Cut the sausages into chunks.
