Island-style ham, pineapple egg & chips image

Try a twist on classic ham, egg and chips using our Caribbean spice mix. Sweet and spicy jerk-style spices work so well with salty meats like ham

Provided by Cassie Best

Categories     Brunch, Dinner, Main course, Supper

Time 2h25m

Yield Serves 4-6

Number Of Ingredients 21

1kg piece unsmoked boneless gammon
1l ginger beer
5 cloves
5 black peppercorns
2 bay leaves
4-6 large potatoes , peeled and cut into chunky chips
3 tbsp vegetable or rapeseed oil
2 tbsp Caribbean spice mix , plus a pinch (see below)
1 tbsp treacle
½ lime , juiced
1 small pineapple
4-6 eggs
1 green chilli , sliced (optional)
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tbsp black peppercorns
1 tbsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried ground ginger
2 dried bay leaves
8 allspice berries
1½ tsp cayenne pepper
½ nutmeg , grated

Steps:

  • Put the ham in a snug-fitting pan, pour over the ginger beer and add the cloves, peppercorns and bay. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover with a lid and cook for 1 hr 15 mins. Leave the ham until cool enough to handle, then use a knife to remove the rind, leaving a layer of fat on the ham.
  • Put the chips in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for 2 mins, then drain and leave to steam-dry in the colander. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the chips onto your largest baking tray, toss with the oil, a pinch of Caribbean spice mix and some salt. Spread the chips out to a single layer, or if your tray is small, use two to make sure your chips have plenty of space around them so they get nice and crispy. Bake for 40 mins, turning them halfway through. Meanwhile, put the ham in a small baking dish lined with foil. Mix 2 tbsp Caribbean spice mix, the treacle and lime juice and paint all over the ham. Put in the oven alongside the chips for the final 20 mins of cooking.
  • Cut the top and bottom off the pineapple, stand it upright on a chopping board and cut away all the peel from the sides too. Cut it in half through the core, then into long, thin wedges - you should get about 12. Cut out the woody core from each piece, brush with some oil and sprinkle with a little Caribbean spice mix.
  • Heat a griddle pan and a frying pan with the remaining oil. Cook the pineapple in the griddle pan for 2-3 mins each side until charred. Crack the eggs into the hot oil in the frying pan and scatter with the sliced chilli, if using, and cook the eggs to your liking.
  • Remove the ham and chips from the oven. Thickly slice the ham and serve it with the chips, eggs and pineapple.

Categories     Sauce     Fruit     Vinegar     Orange     Pineapple     Curry     Bell Pepper     Spring     Jalapeño     Simmer     Bon Appétit

Yield Makes about 7 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large red onion, chopped
2 medium-size red bell peppers, chopped
5 tablespoons minced seeded jalapeño chilies
3 tablespoons curry powder
9 cups 1/2-inch cubes peeled quartered cored pineapple (from 2 large)
1 1/2 cups orange juice
1 1/2 cups apple cider vinegar
1 1/2 cups (packed) golden brown sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy large pot over medium-high heat. Add red onion and bell peppers and sauté until onion begins to soften, about 8 minutes. Add jalapeño chilies and curry powder; stir 2 minutes. Add pineapple cubes, orange juice, apple cider vinegar, and golden brown sugar. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium and simmer mixture until thick and reduced to about 7 1/2 cups, stirring often, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Season chutney to taste with salt and pepper.
