ROASTING GAMMON


ROASTING GAMMON
Elize’s New Year’s gammon… uit die boeke heerlik!
Roast gammon is a lovely dish alongside seasonal ingredients like peas, asparagus or even fennel.
Scoring the skin before roasting is a must to help render down the fat and ensure mouth-wateringly crisp skin.
2 kg gammon, boned and rolled

Stock vegetables:
2 onions
3 celery sticks
3 carrots
thyme, (optional)

Roasting vegetables:
2 onions, quartered
3 celery sticks, roughly chopped
3 carrots, roughly chopped
1 garlic bulb, halved width-ways
1 handful of thyme sprigs

Glaze:
2 tbsp of wholegrain mustard
2 tbsp of honey
1 tsp cider vinegar
1 tsp brown sugar
1 tbsp of vegetable oil

Soak the gammon in water for 24 hours to remove any excess salt from the joint. Drain and rinse again with clean water (soaking may not be necessary depending on how the gammon has been cured).
Place the gammon and stock vegetables in a large pot and cover with water. Bring the pan to a boil, then simmer for 1 1/2 hours depending on the size of the joint (allow 20 minutes per 450g plus an extra 30 minutes) – it should reach an internal temperature of 68°C. (TIP: I leave my gammon in this liquid stock to cool before transferring to my roasting tin, it keeps the meat moist!)
Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4
Remove the gammon from the saucepan (you can reserve the liquid to make a stock) and score the skin and fat. Whisk together the ingredients for the glaze and spoon over the skin.

Lay a trivet of vegetables on the base of a roasting tin and top with the gammon.
Cook in the oven for 1 ½ – 2 hours, glazing the gammon every 15 minutes or so.
Remove the gammon from the oven and leave to rest before carving.

GAMMON IN AN OVEN BAG


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.

2 INGREDIENT BAGELS

|
2-INGREDIENT BAGELS
1 cup plain Greek yogurt
1 cup self-raising flour or 1 cup all purpose flour + 1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 egg, whisked
sesame seeds or poppy seeds (I used pumpkin and sunflower seeds)

Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. In a large bowl add the yogurt and flour. Using a spoon or spatula, mix together until it begins to form a crumbly dough. Use your hands to push the dough together to form a ball.
The dough will be very sticky. You can use a mixer with a dough hook or you can knead by hand. Cover surface with flour and knead until the dough is tacky and no longer sticky. Divide the dough into 4 equal balls. Roll each ball out on lightly floured surface until it becomes a rope of about 2 cm thick. Try to make the rope as even and smooth as possible. Pinch the ends together to form a circle. Repeat with the remaining dough. Place the bagels on the baking tray. Brush with the egg wash. Sprinkle tops with the seeds. Bake for about 23 – 25 minutes or until cooked all the way through. Remove from the oven and turn up the heat to 200°C. Return the bagels to the oven and bake for a further 2 – 3 minutes until the tops are brown. Leave to cool for a few minutes.

JACK’S CAKE (RICH MAN’S CAKE)


JACK’S CAKE (RICH MAN’S CAKE) HEERLIK!
Ek het hierdie resep omtrent 20 jr gelede by ‘n kollega van my se vrou (Fiona Vergers) gekry en dit nog net eenkeer gemaak. Dit was HEERLIK. En lyk baie indrukwekkend.
Het ongelukkig destyds nie foto geneem nie maar wil dit tog weer hierdie jaar maak. Sal dan foto neem en kom wys. Ek het gaan google om te sien of ek iets soortelyks kry, maar sien nerens iets nie.
Dit is so lekker – toe ek vanoggend deur ‘n ou resepteboek lees en op dit afkom toe weet ek ek kan nie so ‘n eiesoortige resep vir myself hou nie.

1 pakkie Dixie of Salticrax beskuitjie – fyngedruk en meng met 125 g gesmelte botter
2 houertjies full cream cottage cheese, gemeng met 1 eetlepel gerasperde uie, sout en peper
2 blikkies pink salm (verwyder vel en grate – tuna kan ook gebruik word, maar ek verkies die salm), fyngemaak en gemeng met:
1 eetlepel tamatiesous
1 eetlepel mayonnaise
1 hoogvol eetlepel gekapte agurkies
sout en peper
(as jy tuna sou gebruik, voeg klein bietjie ekstra tamatiesous, mayonnaise en knippie gemmer by)

Gebruik koekpan met los kante.
Pak laag beskuitjies. Smeer maaskaas op. Sit salm bo-op (of tuna mengsel).
Voor jy opdien, meng die volgende en smeer op die mengsel:
1 groot of 2-3 klein avokado’s
sout en peper
suurlemoensap

Kook 2-3 hardgekookte eiers (druk fyn) en strooi bo-oor avokados.
Sprinkel (verkieslik swart) kaviaar bo-oor.
Plaas in yskas vir ‘n ruk. Wanneer gestol, maak kante van koekpan los.
Bedien met vars keuse van brode en goeie bottel wyn.
Geniet!
