ALL-VEGETABLE TOAD-IN-THE-HOLE
While Americans may think of toad-in-the-hole as an egg fried into a piece of sandwich toast (which is delicious), the classic British version of this dish is much different. Typically served in a casserole dish, it's a savory batter nestling sausages and onions. For our still-satisfying but healthier version, we filled pancake-like batter with a seared ratatouille-style mixture of veggies. Make this vegetarian toad-in-the-hole a main dish and serve it with a basic green salad, or serve it as a side dish to a larger group, perhaps with one of these vegetarian main dishes.

Steps:
- To make the batter, beat the eggs and milk together in a bowl, add 1 tsp salt, then beat again and leave to stand for 30 mins. Tip in the plain flour and beat well with a whisk until smooth. If you can, make this 2 hrs before needed and allow to stand before pouring into the tin.
- Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Pour 2 tbsp oil in a 28 x 23cm roasting tin (or a tin roughly that size), coat the sausages in the oil and roast them in the oven for about 8-10 mins.
- Stir the batter, then remove the tin from the oven and pour the batter over the hot oil and sausages (you can do this over a low heat on the hob to keep the oil nice and hot). Put the tin back in the oven and cook for 10 mins, then turn the temperature down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and cook for a further 25-30 mins or until the batter is cooked through.
- Test with a knife in the centre to check it's cooked. Serve with our crunchy polenta roast potatoes, caramelised carrots and veggie gravy, if you like, plus some green vegetables.

TOAD IN THE HOLE
You know that something with a name like this is going to be good and this truly is! The traditional recipe itself is very simple but the method for making it is not, so I developed this "cold oven cheater method" which is much safer and easier. The end result is an amazing flavor and texture combination of fatty sausage links, crispy, puffed, and tender Yorkshire pudding, and delicious onion gravy. And the gravy is so good you'll want to eat it on just about anything (and everything!)

Steps:
- Prepare batter: Combine eggs, salt, pepper, cayenne, 1 cup plus 1 tablespoon flour, and milk in a large bowl; whisk thoroughly until batter is very smooth and no lumps remain. Whisk in water. Cover and let rest at room temperature for 1 hour.
- Prepare sausages: Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausages and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the heat and transfer to a buttered 9x12- or 9x13-inch baking dish. Pour oil from the skillet over the sausages; brush oil with a pastry brush all over the bottom and up the sides of the dish.
- Start onion gravy: Melt butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and salt; saute until soft and starting to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
- While onion is cooking, pour batter in and around the sausages. Place in the center of a cold oven and turn temperature to 500 degrees F (260 degrees C). Set oven timer for 30 minutes.
- While toad in the hole cooks, finish onion gravy: Stir in flour and cook for about 2 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and return to a simmer. Add Worcestershire sauce and balsamic vinegar and simmer until gravy thickens up and reduces, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to low and stir in green onions. Taste and adjust seasoning.
- When timer goes off, remove toad in the hole from the oven; it should be browned and puffed. Spoon gravy over the sausages and garnish with green onions and chives.
- Serve with extra gravy.

VEGETABLE TOAD IN THE HOLE
Toad-in-the-Hole for vegetarians, with baby carrots, green beans & sweetcorn. It can be made in one large dish or in individual Yorkshire pudding tins/pans. When I made it, I used bigger carrots, twice the corn & the wholegrain mustard I used had roasted garlic flavour. We enjoyed it with some tomato sauce (ketchup) and sour cream. This recipe and the following tip come from What's Cooking Vegetarian by Jenny Stacey. TIP: It is important that the oil is hot before adding the batter so that the batter begins to cook and rise immediately.
