I Had The Most Beautiful Tasting Ham On A Salad Last Night

[Bobbisox1]

at my sister in laws, She'd done a gammon joint in her slow cooker with Diet coke for the liquid, the taste was absolutely divine, I have often done diet coke with chicken but never with ham, it was so tender it melted in the mouth

[Bobbisox1]

the chicken can be don on the cooker top BS just the same
I don't like asparagus but I do love broccoli and stilton soup.
Lcg , lucky you, has the new kitchen an island?, I always wanted one of those but my kitchen is too small for one

Might try it Bobbs the next time my pal from Scotland visits. I always try to cook us something nice for a meal.

I've got a plug in induction hob and it is a fabby bit of kit. Doesn't take up a lot of room when not being used, fits in a drawer nicely.

[Bobbisox1]

I have a plug in skillet ( I think that's what it's called haha)
I wouldn't be without it

[MartinMillar]

Electric frying pan?

[LadyCG]

It heats up and cools down in mega quick time. I don't think I'll get necessarily get rid of it when the new kitchen is fitted.

[Bobbisox1]

How big a piece of ham do you tend to use, Bobbi?

[Bobbisox1]

just the general size gammon joint lcg, enough to feed 5

[LadyCG]

I suppose I could make a ploughman's with that and several ham croquettes for the tiny one.

[Bobbisox1]

yes, sounds good, I really like croquets too
