Toad in the hole for Will 🐸

Recipe
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups flour
- 1.5 cups eggs (about 7 eggs)
- 1.5 cups milk
- 0.5 tablespoon salt
- 10 sausages (8 for the toad, 2 for the gravy)
- 2 brown onions, sliced
- 3 tbsp grapeseed oil
- 50g unsalted butter
- 50g flour
- 500ml chicken stock
- 4 dashes of Worcestershire sauce
- Buttered peas to serve
Method
1. Start by making the batter by mixing the flour, eggs, milk and salt. Whisk until there are no lumps and leave in the fridge to rest.
2. Preheat your oven to 200°C. Place 8 of the sausages into a roasting dish and drizzle them with oil.
3. Place them into the oven for 10 minutes or until they start to brown.
4. Pour over the batter mix 3/4 of the way up the sausages and place it back into the oven safely and quickly. Close the door and don't open it again for at least 30 minutes.
5. While that's cooking, make the gravy by breaking up the sausages into a frypan and over med-high heat to brown off.
6. Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook the onions for 10 minutes until they are starting to develop colour.
7. Add the butter and, once melted, add the flour and stir well.
8. Once the flour is absorbed into the butter, add the stock and stir so you don't have any lumps.
9. Season this with Worcestershire sauce and salt (if needed).
10. After the toad has been in the oven for 30 minutes, check to see how it's looking - it's ready when golden brown and more than doubled in size.
11. Serve with buttered peas and onion gravy.

Oh man living in a poor household in the 70's toad in the hole was our fortnight treat and boy could my dear old mum make it well. The sides used to rise up about 6" crust on top and moist inside. Tried it 100's of times myself and it just aint the same.

@bronzedrage I have had toad in the holes, but not like this. My parents did this one where they would butter up a slice of toast, toast it again, take a hole out of the middle, lay it on some bacon, then dump an egg in the middle. I'm a little displeased that my expectation is not aligned to reality, but all the same, this more accurate toad in the hole looks divine. Feel like a good fried egg could do this wonders too. Edit: forgot to mention I was American. Whups!
