Comments on: (Mr) Toad In The Hole http://www.notquitenigella.com/2010/02/04/mr-toad-in-the-hole/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I knew I had to give this a go when I saw your post. Always wanted to try making this but the versions I have is always complicated. Went to the butcher yesterday to get the sausages - Hubby wanted "rocket & chilli sausages" & I wanted "Greek sausages" (which I was told is pork, beef, garlic, oregano & a few other delicious ingredients which I cannot remember". So I am using half & half. Then this morning I realised that I have no milk or soda water. As I am feeling rather lazy to pop into the shops I have substitue milk with Vitasoy & soda water with beer! Fingers crossed!! Cooking in the oven as I speak! Hi Lorraine. I knew I had to give this a go when I saw your post. Always wanted to try making this but the versions I have is always complicated.
