Description

Cook perfectly tender and flavorful Air Fryer Gammon with a sweet, caramelized glaze. An easy and impressive main dish for holidays, family dinners, or special occasions!

Ingredients 

  • 3 pounds gammon joint, bone-in or boneless
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar or honey, for glazing
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, optional
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Water or stock, for cooking

Instructions

  • Score the surface of the 3 pounds gammon joint in a diamond pattern. This allows the glaze to penetrate the meat.
  • If you prefer a milder flavor, soak the gammon in water for a few hours or overnight to reduce saltiness. Drain before cooking.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 160 degrees C (or 320 degrees F).
  • Place the gammon in the air fryer basket. Add a small amount of wWater or stock to the bottom of the basket to create steam. Cook for about 45-50 minutes, depending on the size, until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F).
  • While the gammon is cooking, mix 2 tablespoons brown sugar or honey with 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard and Freshly ground black pepper in a small bowl.
  • After the initial cooking time, brush the glaze over the gammon. Increase the temperature to 200°C (400°F) and cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelized and bubbly.
  • Once cooked, remove the gammon from the air fryer and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • Slice and serve warm, with your favorite sides.
