Ingredients

  • 200 grams Chips (Use oven chips or make your own air-fried chips)
  • 2 Gammon Steaks
  • 1 1/2 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 8 Small Vine Tomatoes
  • 4 Pineapple Rings (We used tinned)
  • 1 tsp Light Brown Sugar
  • 160 grams Peas
  • 2 Eggs (we used duck eggs)
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Chilli Vinegar (Make your Own Chilli Vinegar)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Chips: Cook 200 grams Chips in your favourite way. We cooked our homemade air fryer chips, but oven chips / frozen chips cooked on a baking tray is fine too! 15 minutes before the chips are cooked start cooking the rest of the meal.

  2. 2

    Snip incisions into the rind and fat layer of the 2 Gammon Steaks. This step prevents the gammon from curling up during cooking.

  3. 3

    Gammon: Place only ½ tbsp of the 1 ½ tbsp Olive Oil into a large frying pan, heat over medium-high heat. Add the 2 Gammon Steaks and cook for 3-6 minutes on each side. (Time depends on thickness of gammon steak)

  4. 4

    Fry: Meanwhile, place another ½ tbsp of oil into a griddle pan (or another frying pan) on medium heat, add 8 Small Vine Tomatoes and 4 Pineapple RingsOptional - We like to sprinkle 1 tsp Light Brown Sugar on both sides of the pineapple to give them a caramelised finish.

  5. 5

    Cook: Use the oil in the pan to coat the tomatoes. Turn the pineapple and cook until both sides are browned.

  6. 6

    Boil: Cook 160 grams Peas in boiling water.

  7. 7

    Eggs: In another frying pan, fry your 2 Eggs with the final ½ tbsp of oil to your desired consistency. We use duck eggs cooked with a runny yolk!

  8. 8

    Remove: Once cooked, remove the gammon from the pan.

  9. 9

    Plate the gammon steaks together with the egg, chips, pineapple, tomatoes and peas. Season with Salt & Pepper and optional Chilli Vinegar.
