Toad in the Hole with Onion Gravy

Ingredients

• 8 pork sausages
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• 1 cup milk
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 2 large onions, sliced
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 cups beef stock
• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tbsp cornflour

Instructions

1. To start, preheat your oven to 200°C and place your sausages in a baking dish. Pop them in the oven for 10 minutes to give them a head start on cooking.
   
   
2. While the sausages are sizzling away, it's time to whip up your batter. In a bowl, mix together the flour and salt. Make a well in the center and crack in the eggs. Gradually whisk in the milk until you have a smooth batter.
   
   
3. After the sausages have had their 10 minutes, carefully pour the batter over them in the baking dish. Pop them back in the oven for another 25-30 minutes, until the batter has risen and turned a beautiful golden brown.
   
   
4. While the Toad in the Hole is baking, it's time to work on the onion gravy. In a pan, melt the butter and sauté the onions until they are soft and caramelized. Add in the beef stock and Worcestershire sauce, and let it simmer for a few minutes.
   
   
5. In a small bowl, mix together the cornflour with a little water to make a slurry. Stir this into the gravy to thicken it up. Let it simmer for a few more minutes until it reaches your desired consistency.
   
   
6. Once the Toad in the Hole is ready and the gravy is piping hot, it's time to serve up this comforting dish. Spoon the onion gravy over the sausages and batter, and dig in!
