Potatoes too stodgy? Salad too summery?
Baked beans?

Super hot oil, not too much of it, or the base becomes mushy. Roast the potatoes and onions for a bit first to soften. Then bung the sausages in too for a while. Before finally the batter.[/quote]
Thanks @mnahmnah when the weather cools down this is the first thing I'm cooking

Mash and either veg and gravy or beans.

I also make [https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/ultimate-toad-hole-caramelised-onion-gravy this]] toad in the hole when I can be bothered/have bacon in the fridge. Try it. You'll thank me.

Mash, carrots/peas lashings of onion gravy. Colcannon is a great idea, will try that in the winter.

i do mine with herbs and onions in the bottom...put those in with the oil, and I use a heavy roasting tin, then brown the sausages, and sometimes have more thyme leaves in the batter

serve with beans usually, or mash and extra onion gravy :o

Green veg, depending on what's in the fridge/freezer.
Mashed potato.
Gravy. There must be gravy.

@CupoTeap

I love a bit of mash, onion gravy and marrow fat peas, sorry I know not everyone's cup of tea

Me too. Lovely creamy mash, delectable gravy and whatever veg is fancied. Baked beans do if there's nothing else but peas and carrots are great.

I've had it with roast potatoes, cauliflower cheese and red onion gravy too which was yum.

Green veg (usually cabbage, broccoli, green beans or peas but sometimes more than one veg). Gravy (preferably onion gravy, sometimes I add some mushrooms too). Maybe mash potato, maybe not.

Gravy, obvs.

Then a mix of any "firmer" veg - cauliflower, broccoli, green beans, cabbage (red or green), carrots, red onions, kale, rainbow chard, butternut squash.

formerbabe & @Endlessmizzle, as you need to have a very hot dish I would definitely use a metal one, and by metal I don't mean a non-stick coated one but enamelled steel or anodised aluminium. The only way to get it really hot before you pour the batter in is to put it on the hob (and non-stick coated roasting dishes won't generally cope with that high heat). The hotter the dish, the better the rise on your Yorkshire Pud.

Gravy, mash and cabbage to accompany (although I do like the sound of onions in with the YP).

@Babs709 it doesn't take long: 10-15 mins from raw (in florets)
