SERVES: 2

INGREDIENTS:

- 2 Gammon Steaks
- 2 Baking Potatoes / Cut into Chunky Chips

The first step in achieving this delicious dish is to preheat your oven to 180C Fan/200C/ Gas 6.
Smother your cut baked potatoes in olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Once seasoned and oiled, place your chips on a baking tray and into the oven for 25-30 minutes depending on how crispy you’d like them.
After 15 minutes of cooking time, open your oven and place your thick slices of gammon onto the same tray and leave to bake for an additional 10 minutes.
After 15 minutes have passed, take the tray out of the oven making space for 2 eggs.
