Haven't had this dish since I was stationed in England 40 yrs ago. I agree with the rarebit and ales addition. Thank goodness for the recipe!

Cook then for 15-20 mins then pour COLD yorkshire mix over the top. You should hear a sizzle. That means the fat is hot enough and the mixture is COLD enough. My Nana leaves hers in the fridge until its needed.

Gently fry some sliced onions in butter for about 20 minutes until very soft, add about a tablespoon of plain flour, cook for another minute, add some beef stock, stir well and bring up to a simmer for 5 minutes and season to taste. You can add other flavourings if you like - some maderia, marsala, red wine, or sherry. Or worcestershire sauce. Some herbs maybe - thyme, rosemary, that sort of thing.

It looks really tasty but it also looks like it might be a little pastry-heavy without some gravy(besides I love gravy). :) What kind of gravy would you suggest serving with it?

But when I'm making Yorkies, I use bacon drippings. Actually, from everything I’ve ever seen, lard isn’t beef fat, it’s pork fat.
