What sort of sauce could I do with gammon ham please?

Question

Thanks for all these lovely ideas guys. I'm going to find it hard to choose.

Answer 1

I like to serve it with cauliflower cheese, new potatoes and garden peas

Par-boil parsips and add to the cauliflower cheese before you put it in the oven, its gorgeous

Answer 2

Grill the gammon and serve with either boiled potatoes or chips, peas and or other vegetables, lightly grilled tomato. Traditionally gammon is served either with pineapple rings or with a poached or fried egg. Probably not a good idea to have ham as a starter if you are serving gammon. Maybe you could serve prawn cocktail or an avocado salad. Pate with toast is popular too. For dessert you could do anything. If you're staying traditional you might like to serve apple pie with cream or treacle pudding with custard. With a turkey it really depends on the size and weight of the bird. Generally supermarket turkeys come with cooking instructions. Very much like cooking a chicken - just takes longer.

Answer 4

This is an Irish recipe:

Gammon (Ham) Steaks with Whiskey Sauce

4 Gammon (Ham) steaks
2 Tbsp finely chopped onion
1 Tbsp Brown sugar
1 Tbsp Whiskey
1 oz Flour
1 oz Butter
3/4 c Water or stock
Salt or pepper to taste

Brush steaks with melted butter. Snip fat to prevent curling, and grill for 7-8 minutes each side. To make sauce, gently fry onions in remainder of butter until cooked. Remove from heat and stir in flour gradually. Add stock. Return to heat. Add brown sugar and bring to the boil. Simmer gently for about 2 minutes to cook flour. If sauce seems a little thick, add more water. Add whiskey and season to taste. Place gammon steaks on a warmed serving platter and pour on sauce.
