Hi charlies_mum,
I always make cheese sauce with gammon and cabbage.
There's an older thread that should give you some more ideas so I've merged your thread with it to keep all the suggestions together.

Was that just an excuse to post pictures of Johnny Depp - now my mind's gone right off gammonYou're only young once, but you can be immature forever0 -
Posting pics is a bit beyond me unfortunately
It's just that anytime I hear the word parsley I think of that bit in the film. In fact OH and I speak to each other in 'film' quite a lot of the time and Pirates is a good source of useful phrases -which is nice

Too late for tonight's meal but maybe Cumberland sauce would have been nice.
Parsley sauce is the traditional accompaniment.:wave:0 -
Too late now, but I cook gammon in apple juice, which when slightly thickened with cornflour makes a delicious sauce/gravy. Any stock left is a great base for bacon and lentil soup.

I do it in the juice from a tin of unsweetened apricots and then make a sauce with the juices using, celery, onion, sherry. Then you heat the apricots to eat with it. It's from a great book called Budget Gourmet by Geraldine Holt - although I think it's out of print now“the princess jumped from the tower & she learned that she could fly all along. she never needed those wings.”

I would make a mustard sauce.
Make a white bechamel sauce and then add some made up english mustard, whisk well and then add chopped parsley to the sauce before serving.
Delicious with gammon, mashed potato and peas. Yum! Might keep my eyes open for a gammon myself this weekend, I don't think I have cooked this for my OH yet!Thanks to MSE, I am mortgage free!
