Ham & Squash

The combination of roasted squash and ham is just delicious.

Use gammon steaks instead of roasting a ham joint if you're cooking for just 1 or 2, or don't have as much time.

Served up with some roasted garlic broccoli and cauliflower.

 

What you'll need

Enough for however many you're feeding, I cook for 2.

Main ingredients

  • Gammon/ ham
  • Butternut squash

Fresh/ frozen

  • Broccoli
  • Cauliflower

Store cupboard

  • Chilli flakes, optional
  • Olive oil
  • Salt & pepper

 

What to do

  1. Cook the gammon to your liking, I usually cook a small joint (180 fan, about 30-40mins) but you could pan fry or grill some gammon steaks instead.
  2. Slice the squash lengthways and remove the seeds. Cook on the middle shelf with a drizzle of olive oil, salt & pepper and a sprinkling of chilli flakes until nice and soft, takes about 30 minutes, 180 fan.
  3. When they're both cooked it's time to plate up - serve with a side or 2 of your favourite greens...

 

Prepare the squash for roasting

Notes & tips

68-70 degrees this is the temperature at which gammon is cooked. Insert a food thermometer into the middle of the meat. If it's between 68-70 degrees, it can come off the heat and left to rest.

top with a fried egg for an even more classic combination; ham and eggs... optional of course!
