Ingredients

1 1/2 lbs ground beef
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/8 teaspoon cumin
1/2-1 clove garlic, finely minced
1 1/2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups milk

Steps:

You will need 2 skillets for this dish; one should be a 10" skillet that is oven safe.
Preheat the oven to 400.
In one skillet, cook the beef, onions, salt, pepper, coriander, cumin and garlic until the beef is browned; drain.
Put the 10" oven safe skillet into the oven until the pan is hot.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix the flour with the salt.
Set aside.

Pour half the batter into the hot skillet.
Top with the meat mixture, then the rest of the batter.
Return to the oven and bake for 40 minutes.

Tips:

To make the perfect Yorkshire pudding batter, use equal quantities of plain flour, milk, and eggs. For example, if you use 100g of flour, use 100ml of milk and 100g of eggs (about 2-3 eggs depending on their size).
Whisk the batter until it is smooth and lump-free. Make sure to incorporate plenty of air into the batter as this will help the puddings to rise.
Season the batter with salt and pepper to taste.
Heat the beef dripping in a muffin tin in a very hot oven (220°C/425°F/Gas 7) for about 15 minutes, or until it is very hot and sizzling.
Pour the batter into the hot beef dripping and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puddings are golden brown and risen.
Serve the Yorkshire puddings immediately with your favorite gravy and fillings.
