01 - 1 cup all-purpose flour
02 - 1 cup whole milk
03 - 3 large eggs
04 - 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

→ For the Pudding Tins

05 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

# Directions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Place a mini muffin tin with 18 wells in the oven to heat.

04 - Quickly fill each well halfway with batter. Bake for 15 to 17 minutes until puddings are puffed and deep golden brown. Avoid opening the oven during baking.
05 - While puddings bake, combine sour cream, horseradish, half the chopped chives, and black pepper in a small bowl.
06 - Remove the puddings from the tin once baked and let them cool slightly.
07 - Fill each pudding with a strip of roast beef and a dollop of horseradish cream. Garnish with the remaining chives. Serve warm.
