Gammon, Egg and Veg - SP


Serves 2
30 minutes
Syn Free

Ingredients

2x Gammon Steaks (all visible fat removed)
2x eggs
1x bag of mixed veg
1x bag of swede and carrot mix
Fry Light

Method

Boil the swede and carrot mix as per packet instructions (around 15 to 20 minutes and then drain and mash.

Whilst the swede and carrot mix is boiling away, spray a frying pan (I used a griddle pan) with fry light and cook the gammon steaks for about 5 minutes each side.

Cook the mixed vegetable mix as per packet instructions. I have a fabulous microwavable steamer so 6 minutes in the microwave and it's done!

And last but not least, fry up your eggs just before serving.


This is a really quick and easy meal - ideal if time is a bit short. Buying pre-packet veg is a life saver when your in a hurry!
