  • i always use Lidl's gammon; excellent value.

    we either have them on a bed of vegetable rice with a fried egg on top or with mash and parsley sauce and peas.

    Yum not had gammon for ages.
    We normally have it with savoy cabbage stir fried with mushrooms and onions (also yummy with sausages...the cabbage that is not the gammon!)

    Thanks - was doing a debate as to whether to do salmon or gammon steaks tonight.

    Since we have some cabbage to use up, some mushrooms and onions - looks like that's the menu for tonight :D

    Do you do any sort of sauce with it? ;)

  • I like to cook it in cola, in the oven. Then serve with chips, grilled tomatoes and a hot homemade BBQ sauce. Delicious.

    I always use Tesco Value gammon rounds (think they are £1.28 or similar for two). Not sure if they are the best quality, but they get eaten, so not going to complain.

    How much are the Lidl ones? There is a Lidl quite near me, but don't go very often cos it relies on bf's good nature to drive me there.

    I always have one meal with gammon in, not sure why I don't do more as it is very nice. I always do the same thing. It's called pasta, sauce and gammon (teehee)

    I cook the gammon rounds on the George while pasta is cooking.

    When they are both cooked, I chop up the gammon, drain the pasta, add the gammon to it and stir in Dolmio Stir Ins (I know, I know, January is my month for starting to make my own tomato sauces).

    I have 3 big gammon steaks left over from yesterdays tea and was wondering what i could make with them in either a oven/grill/slow cooker? I cant freeze them as they have already been frozen, then defrosted (to make yesterdays tea). I dont fancy just gammon steaks for tea again tomorrow

    Any ideas?
