Oliver took it literally when he asked for more food. ~Toad in the hole is a traditional English dinner with sausages,mashed potatoes,vegetables with a nice portion of gravy in a big Yorkshire pudding {Google that because i can never describe what it is to people who have never saw one}. This tradition goes way back in the UK as the poor never had the dosh to pay for gourmet meals and had to improvise. I have to say that my mam makes the best "Toad in the hole" but she never got enough Yorkshires. I have no idea where the toad comes in,maybe it was made up as a humourous address for this dinner in the great depression. Try it,i give you a 1 hour food guarantee that you would not return this back to your mam.
