Sausage Popovers (aka Mini Toad-in-the-Holes) instructions

1. In a large bowl, add the flour and make a well in the middle with a spoon. Break the egg into there..
2. Add the salt and begin to whisk the egg into the flour. As this gets a bit stiff, start to add the milk as you whisk until you have a batter..
3. Leave the batter aside to rest while you make the sausage balls....
4. Take kitchen scissors and snip each sausage into two peices. Remove the skins and shape each piece into a ball..
5. Pour half a tablespoon of oil or fat into each hole in a twelve hole muffin tin and put it into an oven heated to 400C. It's a good idea to place a baking tray on the shelf below to catch any dripping fat..
6. Spray a frying pan with cooking spray and put on a medium heat. Add the sausage balls and brown them on all sides (this should take 8-9 minutes).
7. The oil in the muffin tin will be very hot by now, so be careful doing the next step. Put the sausage balls into the muffin tin, one into each hole, then quickly pour a quarter cup of batter over each one, doing so as quickly as you can to keep the oil hot. Some people take the tin out of the oven onto the hot hob to do this, others just keep the tin in the oven and add the sausage and batter carefully while it's half in there..
8. Cook them for 15-20 minutes, or until golden, puffed and crisp..

Sausage Popovers (aka Mini Toad-in-the-Holes) - When the fat is hot, add the sausages and I often use pork chops with quartered apple and stuffing balls which is really lovely! In a bowl, stir together flour, savory and salt. Whisk milk with eggs; gradually whisk into flour mixture until smooth. Heat the oil over medium heat in a medium. If ever you've had trouble with toad-in-the-hole, this version is foolproof. That said, it's only as good as your sausages. I currently have a bootstrap popover holding a button. Thank you and good luck
