Hi,
Toad in the hole consists of a batter with sausages in it,cooked in
the oven..

| The batter is similar to that of popovers when cooked and has the
sausages sticking out of it. If you want a recipe I've got a really
nice one. I use 'vegetarian' sausages when I make mine, but any
sausage link works well.

| When I was growing up, Toad in the Hole was breakfast food.
Use a drinking glass to cut a hole in the center of a slice of bread.
Spread it lightly with butter or margerine on both sides (boy this
really dates this recipe) and place it in a hot frying pan. Crack an
egg into the center and then cook it as you would if it were just the
egg, flipping it over to ccok the other side.

| .3 sounds like what my parents called a "One Eyed Comily" or some such,
not sure how it is spelled. I thought the toad in the hole was
of British origin with sausage.

See note 2384.

| Although this well loved batter pudding is often made with pork and
beef sausages, cooked with the batter, the classic toad-in-the-hole
contains slices of prime rump steak. The Cornish toad-in-the-hole,
however, resembles nwither of these, the batter being replaced with
mashed potatoes mixed with flour and suet, beaten eggs and milk to a
paste-like consistency; it is used to line a baking tin and sausages
are thrust into the potato mixure and baked.
Classic toad-in-the-hole
1 1/4 lb rump or frying steak (~ 600 gm)
2 oz dripping (~ 60 gm)
3/4 lb ox kidney (~350 gm)
salt and pepper
1 1/2 pt Yorkshire pudding batter (~ 1 lt ?)
Oven: 400 F; gas mark 6; 200 C; 40 minutes
Cut steak into 2in (50mm) long slices and fry for a few minutes in half
the dripping. Cut the kidney into small pieces and season with salt
and pepper.
Make up the batter; heat remaining dripping in a 3 pt pie dish until
smoking. Pour in half the batter and bake until set. Place the fried
steak and the kidney on top of the batter, pour over the remaining
batter and bake until well risen.

| 4014.9 | need a clue | ADISSW::HAECK | Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa! | Tue Feb 28 1995 10:24 | 14 |
| Slightly off topic, but not worth a new topic -
There is a product called "Lean Pockets" which is a sort of pastry or
bread stuffed with a meat, cheese and/or vegetable in a sauce. This is
a spin off of an earlier pocket whose name I forget. While I enjoy
these things, they are expensive.
It seems to me that there are many similar such things, but I can't
quite put my finger on what they are called. I think there is an
Italian version, and a Greek version, and an English version. I'd be
happy to go scan note 5.* on my own, but I need a hint as too what to
look for. Can anyone offer me a clue?

| Hot pockets. Yes, that's it. Can't remember if I've seen Pizza
Pokets.
Thanks all.

For those people who have made Toad in the Hole... what do you serve it
with??
I want to make this but haven't got a clue what to put with it - any
suggestions?
Thanks

| 4014.20 | Some good gravy! | NWD002::KASTENDICK | | Wed Nov 01 1995 16:58 | 7 |
| Gravy. I suppose if you are really hungry, you could add mashed
potatoes (in case of leftover gravy) and vegetables.
Toad in the Hole is basically Yorkshire pud with bangers; Yorkshire
pudding is served with gravy, bangers are served with mash.
