Creamed Ham Toast Recipe 38

CREAMED HAM

Steps:

• Sautee onions in butter over medium heat until onions are transparent.
• Add flour and stir until well combined.
• Remove pan from heat and add milk slowly while stirring.
• Return pan to medium high heat, stirring until sauce thickens, reduce heat to low, stir in cheese until melted.
• Add sherry and ham (add more milk if sauce gets too thick) and simmer until ham is heated through.
• Add garnish, before serving.

CREAMED HAM (OR TURKEY)

Steps:

• Melt butter in a medium sized pot over medium heat.
• Slowly add flour, whisking constantly to make a smooth mixture. Cook the mixture for about a minute, whisking constantly.
• Gradually add milk, whisking during every addition. Mixture will initially seize up but as you add more milk it will start to loosen.
• Slowly the mixture will become more liquid. Continue to whisk it very well in order to avoid lumps. Add milk a few tablespoons at a time, whisking as you add it, until it's all incorporated.
• Initially the mixture will be thin. Stir with a wooden spoon, scraping the bottom of the pot, until it thickens. Depending on the temperature of the burner this could take 5-15 minutes.
• The sauce will be done not long after it starts to slightly boil and thicken. Stir in chopped ham (or turkey).
• Season with salt, starting with 1/2 teaspoon and adding more to taste, depending on the saltiness of your ham or turkey. I often use about 1 teaspoon in total.
• Serve over mashed potatoes, with vegetables on the side.Enjoy! :)

CREAMED HAM & TOAST RECIPE - (3.8/5)

Must keep stirring or it will stick to the bottom of the pan. Add the ham and heat thoroughly. If it doesn't seem thick enough, add 1 tablespoon flour to about 1/4 cup of milk and mix into the sauce before adding ham. Toast bread and pour ham gravy over toasted bread.
