Gravy/sauce to go with gammon

Merlot

As the title says, I would like to make a sauce which goes perfectly with gammon, I was thinking on the lines of a leek and cheese sauce, but have no idea how to do it, other recommendations are most appreciated.

Hi Merlot,

I would make a cheese sauce and add it to leeks that have been lightly cooked in butter or else just serve the leeks separately.

I think I'd fry some sliced leeks then drain off any liquid and stir into cheese sauce. Sound lovely.

Pink winged beat me to it!!

Could try parsley sauce? (Basic white sauce plus chopped parsley)

We always have onion sauce with gammon, (again a basic white sauce but with onions) i would post a recipe but to tell the truth we use colemans!!!!!

Thanks to everyone for their suggestions, I had a look in tesco this morning, and I've bought a packet of onion sauce mix - just to try it with the gammon. I have to admit I am completely useless at making sauces, they are always lumpy, but I will give it another go once I tried the packet one.

I make a mustard sauce - basic white sauce with mustard added.

What about a fried egg or a pineapple ring instead of sauce?

I cooked gammon a couple of weeks ago. I cooked it in apple juice, so made gravy from that, and served with apple sauce
