I love to cook a Sunday Roast and all the trimmings
But Ive got to admit if thers only the 3 of us I use frozen yorkies
I can have them cook while I make my gravy
Otherwise I do prefer home made yorky puds
I do like Lamb though
and I prefer home made mint sauce
who else still makes their own mint sauce?
I do Sunday Dinner on Saturdays. I send the boys out to the pub (I'd love to bug them and find out what they talk about) and I get great satisfaction sitting them down to the full meal. Yorkshire Pudding doesn't just have to be with roast beef. It goes just as well with chicken and, for all I know, lamb and pork too. We'll be havng Yorkshire Pudding at Christmas too. And, yes, I make my own.
Mint sauce. I've given up on that. I grew it in the garden and it just spread like weeds so I got fed up with it and dug it out. Well, actually, I made Tom dig it out.

I always make my own Yorkshire Pudding (thanks God for Delia) and it always rises! I think Aunt Bessie's lacks substance and really can't see what the fuss is all about with making your own Yorkshire Puddings.
I might be a single guy but always make home-made yorkshire puddings if eating beef and equally home-made bread sauce when eating chicken - cant beat it. (in my opinion - although the m and s bread sauce is good - haven't found a good alternative to home-made yorkshires)
If we're not out and about muching I usually cook a sunday roast.
I have to admit to buying Aunt Bessies when there's just the two of us, but if I'm cooking for more than 4 people I do make them myself.

Other than summer when Sundays are the perfect opportunity to fire up the barbeque - it has to be a roast dinner on a Sunday. Preferably beef (with homemade yorkshires done individually in a muffin tin) or lamb (with mint sauce on one side of the lamb and redcurrant jelly on the other). Mmmmm.
Basket Case
Don't make Sunday lunch very often, usually too ill on a Sunday!
I did make roast chicken and yorkshires last night.
And they HAVE to be home made. The frozen ones are minging! Same goes for packet pancakes and dumplings, they are soo easy to make from scratch.
My ex-husband came home one Shrove Tuesday with a packet of pancake mix. The packet said just add eggs and milk. My question to him; "You do realise you've just paid the best part of two quid for four ounces of plain flour don't you?"
Neil's mum makes the best sunday dinner I've ever had and I wouldn't know where to start to try and coppy it. Tons of yorkshire puds...... mmmm making me hungry just thinking about it!
Simply delicious! :smile2:
yep, sunday dinner every week ere unless still driving home from somwhere... and as for the yorkshires... aunt bessies arent a patch on mine! lol if i may so modestly say so!!
