Transform your Sunday roast into a showstopper with Jamie Oliver's Huge Yorkshire Puddings! These light, golden-brown clouds of perfection are made using a simple five-ingredient batter—flour, eggs, milk, salt, and a touch of sunflower oil. The secret to their towering puff lies in letting the batter rest and preheating the tin until the oil is smoking hot before baking. With just 10 minutes of prep time and 25 minutes in the oven, these giant Yorkshire puddings rise to crispy, airy brilliance, making them the ideal accompaniment to gravy-soaked meats or roasted vegetables. Whether you're crafting a traditional British feast or just craving hearty comfort food, this foolproof recipe will deliver piping hot perfection every time.

Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) or 200°C (390°F) if using a fan oven.
In a large mixing bowl, sift the flour and salt together. Create a well in the center of the flour.
Crack the eggs into the well, and then beat them gently while starting to incorporate the flour.
Gradually add the milk while continuously whisking until the batter is smooth and free of lumps. The consistency should resemble heavy cream. Set the batter aside to rest for at least 10 minutes.
Place a 12-cup muffin tin or individual pudding molds on the middle oven rack. Add about 1 teaspoon of sunflower or vegetable oil into each cup or mold.
Heat the tin in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until the oil is smoking hot.
Carefully remove the hot tin from the oven. Quickly and evenly pour the batter into each cup or mold, filling them about two-thirds full. Work swiftly but carefully to retain the heat.
Return the tin to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puddings are puffed up, golden brown, and crisp.
Resist the urge to open the oven door while baking, as this may cause the puddings to collapse.
Serve immediately as part of a roast dinner, or with a drizzle of gravy for maximum enjoyment.
