ingredients

1 ¹⁄₂ cups all-purpose flour
¹⁄₂ teaspoon salt
2 eggs
1 ¹⁄₄ cups milk
1 ¹⁄₄ cups water, cold
2 tablespoons oil
1 ¹⁄₄ lbs sausages, pick your favorite kind

directions

Preheat oven to 425°F Make the batter - sift the flour and salt into a bowl, make a well in the center and break the eggs right into it.
Mix the milk with the cold water. Using a whisk, gradually stir the milk mixture into the bowl with the eggs, incorporating the flour and beating well to make a smooth batter. Leave to stand while you do the next step.
Pour the oil into a roasting pan and add the sausages (cut in half crosswise if large). Put into the hot oven and cook for about 10 minutes until the oil is very hot and the sausages begin to brown.
Stir the batter and quickly pour it around the sausages and return to the oven. Cook for about 45 minutes or until batter is puffed up, set and golden brown. Serve immediately.

Hey all! I am a weekend cook....hence the lazy gourmet title. I'm a veterinary technician with an animal shelter in Chicago.  I take care of approximately 150 cats and 20 dogs on any one day in the rehabilitation unit.  It's a good feeling job. I've been married to a keeper who I just celebrated my 13th anniversary with. We have our furry children - right now seven cats, two rabbits and two guinea pigs, along with my current foster dog who is recovering from a stint at a puppy mill (BOO HISS PUPPY MILLS). So enjoy my recipes! lazy <a href=http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Cookbook%20Swap%20Designs/AZPCookbook2a-1.jpg target=_blank>http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Cookbook%20Swap%20Designs/AZPCookbook2a-1.jpg</a><a href=http://i424.photobucket.com/albums/pp330/LadyBlueNose/Cookbook%20Swap%20Designs/AZPCookbook2a-1.jpg> </a>   <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/calendar%20clips/spices2.jpg alt= width=262 height=186 /> <a href=http://s224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/?action=view&current=spoiledpetswap09partbanner.jpg target=_blank><img src=http://i224.photobucket.com/albums/dd235/MidwestMaven/spoiledpetswap09partbanner.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr266/Acadia/Banners/WineSwapBanner2009-1.jpg alt= /> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/cookbookZWT.jpg border=0 alt=I am alw /> <img src=http://home.insightbb.com/~webdesign5/Logo1a.jpeg alt= /> <img src=http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Birthday%20and%20Celebration%20Images/spicesswap_amtag1.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a132/tgifford/Game%20Room%20Banners/AM%20Banners/KBparticipation.jpg border=0 alt=Photobucket /> <img src=http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/CookbookParticipation2.jpg alt= /></a> <img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif alt= /> <img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg alt= />
