Preheat your oven to 220°C (425°F) or 200°C (400°F) for a fan oven.
Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl and add the salt.
In a separate bowl or jug, beat the eggs, milk, and water together until well combined.
Make a well in the center of the flour and gradually pour in the liquid mixture, whisking constantly until you have a smooth batter with no lumps.
Leave the batter to rest for at least 10 minutes. If you have time, resting it for 30 minutes improves the texture.
Place a teaspoon of vegetable oil into each cup of a 12-hole muffin tin.
Put the muffin tin in the oven and heat the oil until it is smoking hot, about 10 minutes.
Carefully remove the hot muffin tin from the oven and quickly pour the batter into the oil-filled cups, filling each one approximately halfway.
Immediately return the tin to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the puddings are well-risen, golden, and crisp. Avoid opening the oven door during cooking.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately as a side dish with your favorite roast dinner or gravy.
