oz. suet
salt and pepper

1 egg and 1/2 pint milk and water)
Oven setting
few sprigs parsley
425ºF; Gas Mark 7
Chop the
mushrooms. Melt the lard in an ovenproof dish. Trim and season the
chops and place in the melted fat. Mix the breadcrumbs, suet and
mushrooms together, season well and bind with the egg. Put a portion on
top of each chop and cook in a hot oven for 5 minutes. Mix the
batter ingredients together well. Remove dish from oven, pour batter
round chops at once and return to the oven for about 20 minutes. Decorate
with parsley and serve at once with a green vegetable and sauté
potatoes. Serves 4
Quick Tip
A
yorkshire pudding batter will rise better and become crisper if the
batter is poured directly into very hot fat, and put straight into a
hot oven without any delay. An extra egg or even an egg yolk makes it
richer.
