Who doesn't love a Sunday Roast? Originating in England it was traditionally eaten after church on Sunday. Served with beef in the 15th Century it has gone on to be a popular meal with other meats and, for we vegetarians, nut roast. Accompaniments include roast potatoes, vegetables, gravy and a Yorkshire pudding.
A Yorkshire Pudding was originally known as a dripping pudding and was a simple meal or starter made with flour, eggs and milk and served with gravy. The intention was to fill up on this basic meal when meat was not abundant. In America a similar dish is called a popover.
