GAMMON IN AN OVEN BAG
New recipe for gammon that I tried. Wow, how delicious.
3.7 kg gammon
½ cup brown sugar
1/3 cup Dijon mustard
1 can Coke
Cut the fat in blocks. Mix the brown sugar and mustard together and rub it all over the gammon. Place the oven bag down on the table and place the gammon in the bag. Pour the 1 can Coke in the bag, but avoid the gammon or else the sugar will wash off. Blow up the bag and seal it.
Poke 3 small holes on the top for ventilation. Place the bag with the wholes at the top on an oven tray or dish and place in the oven at 180°C for 3 hrs.
Once done, leave to chill for about 15-30 min before opening the bag.
Remove the plastic and pour sauce over the meat when you take it out of the oven. Cut and enjoy.
Note: I did not add orange slices as per original recipe, but was still delicious.
