Not even close to a tradtional roast dinner, those new age recipes try to overload your tastebuds because of the amount of crap we eat today that does the same. I hope you get to eat a real roast dinner
cooking a roast is hard because there are so many dishes to keep an eye on, but I think you did a great job though, especially with the Yorkie puds, yum! Sweet potato would be considered sacrilege in most British households though haha. Back in the day you would buy a joint of meat on a Saturday, put it in the oven and go to church on Sunday morning then do all the side dishes when you got home. Then Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday you would have leftovers. Roast beef sandwiches, bubble and squeak, meat with mash & gravy etc.
Hey - bloody well done with the Yorkshires !!! They are SO easy to ruin: it's ALL about oven temperature. And YOU got them spot-on. Bravo - to our Brave American Cousins !!!!!
We also have Sunday dinner in some places here in Canada! My parents are from Newfoundland so we always have chicken or roast with vegetables and gravy on Sundays 😊 yum!
Same with me growing up in Australia! Even when it was roasting hot, growing up we always had the "sunday roast"!! I think it's a "Commonwealth" tradition!! xx
@@feelingpaulie3943 That's what I assumed, but I read a comment from an Aussie the other day saying he'd never eaten stuffing. Do you not have stuffing with your roasts down there? Or maybe he's been living under a rock in the outback...
@@PiousMoltar I think it's how your family was brought up, but it's not "the thing" that you have to do. Our family rarely had stuffing, but there are plenty that do all the time. Personally, I don't use stuffing with chicken roasts, and turkey roasts are not really a huge thing, unlike the USA with the Thanksgiving traditions that have been carried down. But, that's just one point of view! xx
You are absolutely right to complain about fruit and vegetables being wrapped in plastic. It's crazy. Your best bet is to visit a market or a greengrocer if you want to buy individual items.
Growing up in my family Sunday Roast always meant Roast Beef - did not know other meats were considered "Sunday Roast". Even though my mum cooked the beef until it was grey it always tasted good especially with lots of gravy. Of course Yorkshire pudding was a key element and My mom was an expert - her puddings always rising high (the key is to pre-heat up the oil in the tin before adding the pudding mix ) . Leftovers were always great - the Yorkshires were good at breakfast with jam and the sliced beef were great as an open sandwich with lots of gravy on them
When I grew up in NYC in the late 40s & 50S Sunday dinner was always a roast. Beef, Veal, Fresh Pork, Ham or chicken take your choice. That came to the end as or family expanded and is now only done on holidays.
You didn't get enough praise for your Yorkshire puddings Ashley! They are super hard to get right and for your first attempt, WOW! You wouldn't believe how many British households are rescued by Aunt Bessie every Sunday!
God i hate those ready made so dry they stick to your tongue. If you roast potatos right they turn sweet anyhow, nice thick gravy, i pity anyone who hasnt had a real roast dinner
@@koudacyen The trick with the ready made Yorkshires is to take them out the freezer when you start cooking your roast, then only putting them in the oven for five minutes just as you are serving up. Otherwise you end up with puddings that are soft at the bottom and just right at the top or just right at the bottom and a dry top.
I much prefer home-made but when you're not doing the full roast dinner a ready-made Yorkshire is fine. I actually prefer 'em just a touch dry at the top - gives me an excuse to add lashings more gravy!
Fresh vegetables are sealed for extra sanitary reasons. Once sealed they are exempt from people touching them, bugs and any other made man chemicals or contaminants in addition it helps with reasonable portion size.
Well done on the Yorkshires! (Dish needed cleaning, though.) But you have to have traditional ROAST POTATOES! Also, uncover the chicken during cooking or you'll never have that lovely crispy skin. I baste my chicken throughout with butter and cooking juices. A very popular accompaniment to chicken would be BREAD SAUCE, which is dead easy to make and tastes much better than it sounds. Also STUFFING made from breadcrumbs, onions and herbs. The thing to remember about a roast dinner is that there are many elements which all need to come together at the end at the same time, so planning and preparation is the key. (I'm in my sixties, but still don't leave anything to chance.)
I think they're just not old enough to remember the days when lots of people had Sunday roast in the US. During the 1960's, Sunday was the day you went to church, spent the day with your family, and had Sunday roast for dinner. Back then all the stores were closed on Sundays so there wasn't much else you could do. Towards the late 1960's, things started to change and become more like they are today in the US. On Sundays we always had roast beef with potatoes (or mashed potatoes) with gravy, and peas or cooked carrots on the side. We never had Yorkshire pudding though. That looked pretty good. When I was in London a few years ago, I was surprised to see the restaurants advertising for Sunday roast. It made me feel good thinking about the Sunday meals I had as a child growing up in the US.
Im from the American south( Mississippi) and we went to my grandparents at lunch time for Sunday roast as we call it "Sunday Dinner", even though its lunch! Oh, of course we have cornbread or yeast rolls instead of Yorkshire pudding because Yokshire pudding is flavorless( sorry Brits)
A little tip for you. If you are going out shopping for ingredients, most of our large grocery stores have good websites that are fairly accurate except maybe seasonal veg, so you can check they sell what you want. Saves looking for ages in store, and helps you plan the trip.
we love our roasts in australia as well , they are a staple here. we either roast chicken , leg of lamb or pork with baked potatoes, onions, sweet potato and pumpkin.
Ashley I loved this!! My mum comes from the UK so we grew up with Sunday roast quite often but I've never made one myself. Shameful considering how much I love roast potatoes and Yorkshire puddings and gravy!! You're making me hungry!!
Best way to do roast potatoes is boil them first, then drain, and shake them up in a colander to rough up the outside, then when you roast them, you get lots of crunchy bits on the outside, and it should be soft and fluffy inside
growing up living with my grandparents i was brought up old school so meat used is more lamb beef and pork with Yorkshire puddings and roasters cooked in the dripping from the meat and roast parsnips usually honey glazed or roasted with sugar to sweeten them veg is usually seasonal or what ever you fancy at the time the way you cooked it is more modernised of a old school classic them Yorkshire puddings were perfectly done hats off to you for that they are hard to make
On our Sunday's dinner we so chicken, stuffing, or stuff chicken with stuffing. Yorkshire's, mash, peas, carrots, roast potatoes, sweetcorn, sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli, onion, gravy, mint sauce.
In my time spent in the US I've come to realise that they are quite common among people who's parents / grandparents immigrated from England / Scotland / Ireland to America.
Plastic packed stuff means they don't need scales on the checkouts (that cost a lot more money), they can just scan a barcode. It also makes the checkout process more efficient which means less staff are needed to serve the customers. Like budget airlines the budget supermarket chains look to cut costs wherever they can.
@@WAYAWAYWithAsh If you want single items you need to go to a Fruit and Veg shop or a Superstore like Sainsburys, Morrisons or Tesco. Where you will still find the Pre Packed items but also available loose serve what you want.. Thre traditional Sunday Roast is Beef. However because of price Chicken is now most common. Roast Potatoes are peeled and halved or quartered boiled Potatoes which are put around the meat in the Tray for the last hour of the Chicken being cooked. After they have been put in the Roasting tray we use a Basting Syphon to pick up the hot oil and squirt over the Potatoes. If you wish you can also serve Boiled and or Mashed Potatoes. With Chicken we would expect a Stuffing of some sort like Sage and Onion. We are the same with a single cooker with a single big oven as normally we boil the Vegetables on the Hob.
Well done Ashley, you can't go far wrong with Jamie Oliver's Yorkshire Puddings (I love the way Americans say York-shire). I grew up in the 70's with my parents making Sunday roasts every week, sadly I haven't had one for years. Cooking vegetables in orange juice is a new one to me, but everyone there seemed to like them (personally I'm all for anything that makes sprouts taste better). I agree with Josh, I get annoyed with so much plastic and packaging on food in the supermarket.
Good job but sweet potatoes are not a replacement for roast potatoes. It is a skill to get really crispy roasties. Another tip, don't cook the meat at the same time as the other items. Meat needs to rest and will stay hot covered in foil while the spuds and Yorkshire cook. Partly boil potatoes, drain and let dry in their own steam then give a good 40 mins, never covered to get crispy.
Ive only cooked roasts in ovens with just one oven and a grill. That oven looks pretty expensive I’d love one like that! I usually make gravy from juice of chicken,flour, water from veggies add gravy browning and corn flour to thicken
I thought the oil wasn't hot enough for your yorkies, but they looked fab! For proper roasties, parboil spuds, drain and allow them to dry a little. Then put them into a large oven tray with fat that has been preheated, expect a little spitting of fat if it's hot enough. Give them a good shake every now and then to ensure they cook evenly. They should be soft and fluffy inside and have a nice, crispy outside. The olive oil on a tray thing is how we'd roast parsnips, carrots, and so on.
I find it easy but "oh" so time consuming. "Free Tip" any veg that you are not roasting apart from mash, once cooked run immediately under cold water and drain set aside and when you are ready to use it reheat in boiling water or microwave.
4:30 "First thing we'll do is cook the chicken"! No, no, no, no! First thing you do is figure out your schedule, what you need to do when to have all the food ready at the same time. To do otherwise is tempting disaster
Well done with Sunday roast,those Yorkshires look beautiful,I always put 2 or 3 slices of bacon on the top of the chicken or turkey when roasting,adds a bit of flavour and helps to cook
Braised red cabbage goes best with lamb or pork, fattier meats. It is usually cooked down with apples maybe a few sultanas and spices like cloves, cinnamon and nutmeg.
You two are too young to remember, but in the US we used to have Sunday roast when I was a child growing up in the 60's. Sunday used to be the day when you went to church with your family, it was the day of rest, and all the stores were closed out of respect for this. We used to always have a big roast beef diner with potatoes and everything that goes with it on Sunday. Some families would have leg of lamb. Always had ice cream on Sundays. When I was in London a few years back and saw the restaurants advertising for Sunday roast, it made me think back to when I was growing up. Good times back then.
I agree with you regarding the plastic packaging......its crazy ...over here in Australia we have been getting rid of plastic packaging and bags for a while now...helping the environment !!!!!
Plastic packaging protects the fruit and veg during transit and extends the shelf life. From a couple of days to a couple weeks. Without the bags there would be even more waste.
Josh, the sneaky pepper banger XD Whatta heckers Ash, no dice with carrots either?!? When you finally get back to Finland I'm gonna buy you a bucket full of fresh peas and carrots to juggle with, while me and Mr.Brown bang sausages XDXDXD LMAO
Try ' sage and onion stuffing' made from breadcrumbs. Delish! Perfect with chicken too. Easy to make with a packet mix.just add boiling water.put in a tray or roll into balls and cook in oven alongside your roast potatoes. Well done for what you achieved.
Well done Ashley your Sunday roast dinner looks really tasty and I can smell it from where I'm sitting, your Yorkshire puddings rose beautifully and you have got me looking forward to Sunday already. a very enjoyable taste bud tingling video ..
when I make a Sunday dinner I do carrots turnip Roast potatoes mashed potatoes white cabbage sprouts cauliflower brocoli roast beef or pork I use chicken breast as I don't like meat on the bone with Yorkshire puddings and gravy but I use the gravy granules but I use bisto granules x
Aw, kudos to you for making such a perfect Sunday dinner, and those Yorkshires looked amazing!! Sunday roast is a tradition: kids (not mine!) might eat with their plates on their laps during the week, but come Sunday it’s ‘family roast dinner’ time eaten at the dining table! Useless info: in the North it’s tradition to have boiled (not mashed) potatoes AND roast potatoes. This is because, in years long gone by, Northerners were by and large Working Class - they tended to work in the many Industrial factories or local mills - so were therefore poorer and in need of filling food/carbs. I have lived in the South for many years now, but still serve up both boiled and roast potatoes with my Sunday dinner!
Tip: Start the oven quiet a bit hotter than it needs to be and turn down to the right temperature 5 mins after the chicken has gone in. Chicken will get a more golden brown skin
yahoo for you! loved the music and time lapse for the yorkshire puddings...like a movie about spooky space! Being from NEW England we always had this kind of meal on Sundays, too!
Roasting a whole piece of meat is normal on a Sunday. A celebration dinner and the one uses the leftovers to make stock and meals for the rest of the week. Roasted potatoes become hash brown's and as long as the roasted meat is on the bone. You can also make stock. Traditionally, hash brown's include all the leftover veg including brussel sprouts. We call them baby brains and have a love hate relationship with them. We in UK 🇬🇧 eat a roast all year round and with seasonal vegetables. Brussels sprouts and red cabbage in the winter (at Christmas) and with other veg at other times. So we frugally use the roast ans all parts for a week. Make stock, soup and use other bits of the veg to make hash. In Scotland they also go into the haggis. Boiled in a bag and served with potato.
When you do, put the Yorkshire pudding tray inside a deep roasting tin. If your oil overruns and it goes on the bottom of the oven then man does it smoke up the house.
You know what...I did end up making these for Thanksgiving last year. I used a large cupcake tin and they turned out great! I think I used Gordon ramsey's recipe.
And I did put a pan under them in case any oil dripped and I've kept it there since. So I think Ralph did me a favor and is helping me keep my oven clean.
I think you did an amazing job (especially the Yorkshire puds), and I bet it all tasted great, but it certainly wasn’t a ‘traditional’ Sunday roast 😀. That’s not a criticism BTW, it looked delicious, just not a conventional British roast! One of many things is that, for some reason, Yorkshire pud is usually served with roast beef. And the -shire suffix in county names is normally just pronounced as ‘shuh’.
Call me old fashioned, but Yorkshire pudding is usually made to go with Roast Beef ‘Sunday meal’. It has a particularly good flavour when made with the beef dripping (fat) which is the by-product of cooking the joint of beef. I know lots of people seem to eat them with other roasted meat these days, but it just doesn’t have the same taste.
Sooo brave of you to show us how to cook our only good meal! Err Aldi is not a British store but is more affordable so we Brits are teaching our Grocery stores a lesson by shopping at Aldi ha ha! Well done good effort! Our other only good food is Chicken tikka which is supposed to be Indian but is actually a combination of Indian and British that the Indians came up with so that we Brits could have a milder version of their food ! By the way it is now the U.K.'s favourite dish!!!!!! Love your channel:)
A Sunday roast is roast beef, not chicken and sweet potatoes?! But at least she tried and it was all made with love, that is the main thing. Kudos to this young girl making Yorkshire puddings from scratch, they do not always turn out, those looked really good.
Next time u do your chicken don't cover it u get a much crisper skin that way and u can slip butter underneath the skin of the breast tip for Yorkies keep the pan in the oven when u are pouring in the batter and make sure the oil is smoking hot that way u don't lose much heat
I may have this wrong, but 'roasties' is a relatively new name for roast potatoes. In Australia, where I've been for almost 20 years, they've been called roasties for decades. So I think it's an Australian slang that's caught on in the UK. Probably via Neighbours or Home and Away
Aldi usually have loose veg as well as packaged. A lot of that packaging allows the veg be packed in a nitrogen gas rich atmosphere, which stalls bacterial growth and extends the "sell by" date. Waiting to see the gravy. Your roast will win or fail on that! Other than that, the timing is the big thing. Veg and Yorkshire puds normally wouldn't go in the oven until the chicken was practically fully cooked. To keep the roast moist, I'd add a half litre of water ad a good dash of oil to the dish. You can buy little bottles of gravy browning.
Good job with dinner. Loved warching the Yorkshire pudding actually puff up in the oven. Been scared to try this myself. Think I'll try. I thought it curious all the plastic too. That is the way I do my whole chicken.mmmmm
You made me feel so hungry!! And as you saw, the Yorkshire pudding is not THAT hard to make as many people seem to be saying. But the fact that you never did it before and they came out amazingly, certainly deserves high praise :)
Those Yorkshire Puddings just earned you a British Passport girl.
haha!
Gobsmacked!.. Mixture looked too think then they turned out perfik! Well done luv, great job.
Na, sorry the sweet potato negates that! Visitor Visa only I’m afraid!
No it didn't...
@@tsrgoinc and the gravy has got her a ban from the uk.

I think they would have benefited if they'd gone to a good pub grub place, to see what a Sunday roast looks and tastes like...
You never ever have sweet potatoes with a typical British Roast Dinner

I know right
Sweet potatoes it is 2018 and 90% of Brits have never even tasted them a roastie is from real white potatoes.
I usually include them.
Sweet patatoes roasted banging depending on cook also bang around 4 into mash mix turns out amazing
Chill out man. She did great!

I was highly confused by the OJ on the sprouts.
Also Yorkshire is pronounced Yorksure, you don't say Shire.
More like Yorksher as in the singer Cher.

Wow, brilliant! Looks so good! Yeah got to agree, it's a Christmassy vibe roast dinner.
We put fresh fruit and veg in bags because they are packaged in Nitrogen what makes them keep for longer.
The key for Yorkshire Puddings is the oil should be really really hot before you add the mixture.
On our Sunday's dinner we so chicken, stuffing, or stuff chicken with stuffing. Yorkshire's, mash, peas, carrots, roast potatoes, sweetcorn, sprouts, cauliflower, broccoli, onion, gravy, mint sauce.
I'm American and we do Sunday roasts.
In my time spent in the US I've come to realise that they are quite common among people who's parents / grandparents immigrated from England / Scotland / Ireland to America.

As an Englishman the Sunday roast is something to look forward to. Best food there is! Yours looked very good!

You two are too young to remember, but in the US we used to have Sunday roast when I was a child growing up in the 60's. Sunday used to be the day when you went to church with your family, it was the day of rest, and all the stores were closed out of respect for this. We used to always have a big roast beef diner with potatoes and everything that goes with it on Sunday. Some families would have leg of lamb. Always had ice cream on Sundays.
When I was in London a few years back and saw the restaurants advertising for Sunday roast, it made me think back to when I was growing up. Good times back then.
Great job with the Yorkshires btw. Devilish difficult to do properly. Yours puffed up like a pros. Good job. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The Yorkshire puddings went very well! How did they taste? Ashley, you're a natural!! Brilliant video! Thank you!!
I agree with you regarding the plastic packaging......its crazy ...over here in Australia we have been getting rid of plastic packaging and bags for a while now...helping the environment !!!!!
Those Yorkshire puddings looked perfect! And that’s coming from a Yorkshireman! 😬☺️
Plastic packaging protects the fruit and veg during transit and extends the shelf life. From a couple of days to a couple weeks. Without the bags there would be even more waste.
They also go to Morrison's and Asda and Tesco
Josh, the sneaky pepper banger XD Whatta heckers Ash, no dice with carrots either?!? When you finally get back to Finland I'm gonna buy you a bucket full of fresh peas and carrots to juggle with, while me and Mr.Brown bang sausages XDXDXD LMAO
The Yorkshire puddings turned out really good!!
You did well cooking the meal, it looked very nice
Try ' sage and onion stuffing' made from breadcrumbs. Delish! Perfect with chicken too. Easy to make with a packet mix.just add boiling water.put in a tray or roll into balls and cook in oven alongside your roast potatoes. Well done for what you achieved.
sage and onion stuffing is so easy from scratch though. We generally just make it at Christmas time in my family though as we're more lamb/beef people
Well done Ashley your Sunday roast dinner looks really tasty and I can smell it from where I'm sitting, your Yorkshire puddings rose beautifully and you have got me looking forward to Sunday already. a very enjoyable taste bud tingling video ..
Good job Ashley 👍.. the food looks good
Those yorshires look glorious tbh
Looks yum, but definitely not sweet potatoes for Sunday roast. Love the red cabbage addition which is typically Christmas. Good job x
Good effort, well done on the Yorkies from a Yorkshireman 😎
Many americans pronounce it -ire- in yorkshire pudding, but where I am from its pronounced -sheer- as in york-sheer- pudding
when I make a Sunday dinner I do carrots turnip Roast potatoes mashed potatoes white cabbage sprouts cauliflower brocoli roast beef or pork I use chicken breast as I don't like meat on the bone with Yorkshire puddings and gravy but I use the gravy granules but I use bisto granules x
Aw, kudos to you for making such a perfect Sunday dinner, and those Yorkshires looked amazing!!
Sunday roast is a tradition: kids (not mine!) might eat with their plates on their laps during the week, but come Sunday it’s ‘family roast dinner’ time eaten at the dining table!
Useless info: in the North it’s tradition to have boiled (not mashed) potatoes AND roast potatoes. This is because, in years long gone by, Northerners were by and large Working Class - they tended to work in the many Industrial factories or local mills - so were therefore poorer and in need of filling food/carbs.
I have lived in the South for many years now, but still serve up both boiled and roast potatoes with my Sunday dinner!
Tip: Start the oven quiet a bit hotter than it needs to be and turn down to the right temperature 5 mins after the chicken has gone in. Chicken will get a more golden brown skin
I just had my dinner ! But watching your food made me hungry again 😛
yahoo for you! loved the music and time lapse for the yorkshire puddings...like a movie about spooky space! Being from NEW England we always had this kind of meal on Sundays, too!
Your Yorkshire pudding looked PERFECT!!!!! Just like my mom makes it!! Well done!!!!
You know he’s a man when he gets up for a second plate of roast dinner 😂
Best sunday roast ever is meat, stuffing and roasties done in dripping! Yum yum yum yum yum😊
Roasting a whole piece of meat is normal on a Sunday. A celebration dinner and the one uses the leftovers to make stock and meals for the rest of the week. Roasted potatoes become hash brown's and as long as the roasted meat is on the bone. You can also make stock. Traditionally, hash brown's include all the leftover veg including brussel sprouts. We call them baby brains and have a love hate relationship with them. We in UK 🇬🇧 eat a roast all year round and with seasonal vegetables. Brussels sprouts and red cabbage in the winter (at Christmas) and with other veg at other times. So we frugally use the roast ans all parts for a week. Make stock, soup and use other bits of the veg to make hash. In Scotland they also go into the haggis. Boiled in a bag and served with potato.
How right you are about putting fresh produce in plastic. We don't understand it either!!!!
I've always wanted to make Yorkshire pudding! You've inspired me! I'm making it this year!
When you do, put the Yorkshire pudding tray inside a deep roasting tin. If your oil overruns and it goes on the bottom of the oven then man does it smoke up the house.
@@ruk2023-- thank you Ralph! I live in a small condo that would have been a smokey disaster!
You know what...I did end up making these for Thanksgiving last year. I used a large cupcake tin and they turned out great! I think I used Gordon ramsey's recipe.
And I did put a pan under them in case any oil dripped and I've kept it there since. So I think Ralph did me a favor and is helping me keep my oven clean.
@McDonalds Farmer I only did it once, the first time I made them. It's not an everyday problem but prevention is better than cure in most cases :)
I think you did an amazing job (especially the Yorkshire puds), and I bet it all tasted great, but it certainly wasn’t a ‘traditional’ Sunday roast 😀. That’s not a criticism BTW, it looked delicious, just not a conventional British roast! One of many things is that, for some reason, Yorkshire pud is usually served with roast beef. And the -shire suffix in county names is normally just pronounced as ‘shuh’.
Call me old fashioned, but Yorkshire pudding is usually made to go with Roast Beef ‘Sunday meal’.
It has a particularly good flavour when made with the beef dripping (fat) which is the by-product of cooking the joint of beef.
I know lots of people seem to eat them with other roasted meat these days, but it just doesn’t have the same taste.
Looks great 🍹🍹hope u had a drink afterwards.👍
I like to put pats of salted butter under the skin of the body. Isn't there some kind of gravy for the potatoes?
Sooo brave of you to show us how to cook our only good meal! Err Aldi is not a British store but is more affordable so we Brits are teaching our Grocery stores a lesson by shopping at Aldi ha ha! Well done good effort! Our other only good food is Chicken tikka which is supposed to be Indian but is actually a combination of Indian and British that the Indians came up with so that we Brits could have a milder version of their food ! By the way it is now the U.K.'s favourite dish!!!!!! Love your channel:)
Veggies are only in plastic in supermarkets fresh veggies and fruit can be bought unpackaged at markets
A Sunday roast is roast beef, not chicken and sweet potatoes?! But at least she tried and it was all made with love, that is the main thing. Kudos to this young girl making Yorkshire puddings from scratch, they do not always turn out, those looked really good.
Next time u do your chicken don't cover it u get a much crisper skin that way and u can slip butter underneath the skin of the breast tip for Yorkies keep the pan in the oven when u are pouring in the batter and make sure the oil is smoking hot that way u don't lose much heat
I may have this wrong, but 'roasties' is a relatively new name for roast potatoes. In Australia, where I've been for almost 20 years, they've been called roasties for decades. So I think it's an Australian slang that's caught on in the UK. Probably via Neighbours or Home and Away
Great yorkshire puddings !!!
Aldi usually have loose veg as well as packaged. A lot of that packaging allows the veg be packed in a nitrogen gas rich atmosphere, which stalls bacterial growth and extends the "sell by" date. Waiting to see the gravy. Your roast will win or fail on that!
Other than that, the timing is the big thing. Veg and Yorkshire puds normally wouldn't go in the oven until the chicken was practically fully cooked. To keep the roast moist, I'd add a half litre of water ad a good dash of oil to the dish. You can buy little bottles of gravy browning.
OMG your Yorkshire's were amazing, and I'm from Yorkshire so high praise 👍
Same love them!
Come on, it is just a bit of batter. I like a Yorkshire pudding with gravy but it isn't exactly haut cuisine.
Your Bristol's aren't bad, either!
Good job with dinner. Loved warching the Yorkshire pudding actually puff up in the oven. Been scared to try this myself. Think I'll try. I thought it curious all the plastic too. That is the way I do my whole chicken.mmmmm
You made me feel so hungry!! And as you saw, the Yorkshire pudding is not THAT hard to make as many people seem to be saying. But the fact that you never did it before and they came out amazingly, certainly deserves high praise :)
I shed a small tear at the sweet potatoes as I am a die hard Kind Edward roastie man haha. However props for those Yorkies, they came out amazing!
