Vegetarian Feast with Yorkshire Puddings and Sides
-
Start by preparing the Yorkshire puddings. Mix 140g of plain flour, 4 eggs, and 200ml of milk to form a batter. Preheat the oven to 220°C. Pour a little sunflower oil into each mold of a muffin tin and heat until very hot. Pour the batter into the molds and bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden.
-
For the vegetables, roast carrots and parsnips tossed in olive oil and a sprinkle of thyme at 220°C for 40 minutes. Steam broccoli and peas until just tender.
-
Prepare the mashed potatoes by boiling 1kg of peeled and chopped potatoes until tender. Mash with 50ml of milk and 25g of butter. Season with salt and pepper.
-
For roast potatoes, cut 1kg of potatoes into chunks, parboil for 5 minutes, then toss in hot oil in a roasting tin. Roast at 220°C for 60 minutes, turning occasionally until crispy and golden.
-
Make the cauliflower cheese by blanching a head of cauliflower in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and place in an ovenproof dish. Pour over a cheese sauce made from 50g butter, 50g flour, 500ml milk, and 150g grated cheese, then bake for 20 minutes until bubbly.
-
Prepare the vegetarian steak according to package instructions, then keep warm.
