So I got a gammon joint at the supermarket for just £4. It was on special offer and it was a good piece.
Knowing we were going to be out and about with grandkids today …..turned out to be just Granddaughter in the end but we did have a lot of jobs to do with her …..I knew we wouldn’t have much time to cook.
So before we went out this morning I cooked the gammon….just boiled in the pan.
That’s the healthy part as The Mister wants chips with it. He also will have parsley sauce ….i don’t like that.
What are you having to eat today ?

I would have chips with it as well
Chips would be the best bit
Parsley sauce, I have never tasted that
How big was the Gammon?
I've got 2kg Gammon Joint in the freezer and I am not really sure what to do with it
Thought about boiling it
Then removing from water
Then glazing with a mustard based glaze and finishing in the oven
Then letting cool
And slicing into thin slices and serving with a salad and some fresh crusty bread and butter with my own home made sweet chilli and tomato sauce.

I might have some with crusty bread ….baguette ….tomorrow for supper.
I like the gammon when it’s just boiled …not a fan of grilled or cooked in the oven.
I think it was 1kg in weight …..

@Ineeddentures I don’t like crust ….
Ours came from Tesco……I dont usually have meat from there but these gammon joints I’ve had before and they are nice and tasty.

Mine is only getting glazed in the oven , so it forms like a crust.
My Gammon came from a Butcher down in England , along with the Rump we bought
