Jamie Oliver's Leftover Roast Pork is a stir-fry dish made with sliced roast pork, vegetables, and a savory sauce. Quickly cook garlic, chilies, onion, peppers, and pork, then mix a sauce of cornflour, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar.

Store any leftover Toad In The Hole in a lidded container in the fridge until required. (It will keep for up to 3 days in the fridge.) To reheat, simply place the cold Toad In The Hole on roasting tray in an oven heated to 220C (200C fan / gas mark 7 / 425F) for 10-15 minutes or until piping hot all the way through.

A large, reasonably deep dish is best. If you can use a metal one (like a deep roasting tin) or an enamel one, that's even better as it will get hotter and the heat distribution is better.

There are a few things that will make your batter soggy and stop it from rising nicely. You need to make sure your batter is a good consistency – not too thick and not too thin. This recipe seems to work nicely for us. If your batter still isn't rising well it could be that you haven't used enough oil.

Our answer. The batter in a toad in the hole should rise up but will be airy and crisp rather than spongy or cakey. The flour should be plain (all-purpose) flour and not self-raising. However it is most likely that the batter isn't quite cooking properly due to the dish.

Despite popular belief, there is no record of the dish ever being made with toad. The origin of the name is unclear, but it may refer to the way toads wait for their prey in their burrows, with their heads poking out, just as sausages peep through the batter.

It is certainly not one of the most healthy dishes, but thanks to a few practice runs and trial and error, I have perfected what I believe to be the best, slimming friendly version of a toad in the hole. The calorie count will vary depending on the sausages you use, so make sure you double check.

Why do you pour boiling water over pork roast? ›

Once you have scored the skin (or taken the already-scored roast from the packaging) place your roast skin side up on a rack in the sink. Pour a cup or more of boiling water over the skin. This will shrink the rind, allowing the incisions to open and enabling the heat, salt, and oil to penetrate deeper.

One of my favorite ways is to make braised beef. Thick-slice the roast (1/4 in thick or so), then cut the slices into bite-sized cubes. Put these in a deep pan and add a can of beef broth (about a cup), a cup of water, and a half-cup of red wine.

Line the baking dish with parchment paper. Forget the oil. Add some of the sausage drippings to the batter for flavor and then grease the baking dish with shortening. When you add the batter to the baking dish, the shortening will not be displaced by the batter and help prevent the sticking.

Now put the frog/toad in a plastic container and place it in your freezer for 3 days. This is a humane way to kill amphibians because their bodies go into a state of torpor (metabolism slows way down) -- just as they do in cold weather outside.

It involves placing the toad in a plastic bag or container ensuring that there is sufficient cool air around each individual toad to allow for uniform cooling and freezing (e.g. place toads individually in containers).

Place the product on a flat baking tray and bake on the middle shelf. Cook for 25-30 minutes. Ensure product is piping hot before serving. Serve immediately.

You will need to cook the Toad in the Hole in batches. If you need to reheat them simply blast them for a couple of minutes in the air fryer at 350°F (180°C).
