Ingredients
1kg Ham
200g (soaked overnight) Peas
2 chopped Onions
2 chopped Carrots
2 Bay Leaves
1 chopped Celery
300g Frozen Peas
to serve Bread
Instructions
1
Put the gammon in a very large skillet with 2 litres moisture and bring to the bring to a stew.
2
Remove from the scalding up and empty out off the moisture – this helps to get rid of some of the saltiness.
3
Recover with 2 litres cold moisture and bring to the bring to a stew again.
4
Put everything but the frozen peas into the skillet and bring to the bring to a stew.
5
Reduce to a stew and cook thoroughly for 1½-2½ hrs, topping up the moisture as and when you need to, to a similar level it started at.
6
As the ham cooks and softens, you can halve it if you want, so it is all submerged under the liquid.
7
When the ham is succulent enough to pull into shreds, it is ready.
8
Lift out the ham, skin off and discard the skin.
9
While it is still scalding (wear a rinse pair of rubber gloves), shred the flesh.
10
Remove bay from the chowder and mix gently in the frozen peas.
11
stew for 1 min, then purée until velvety.
12
empty in a splash of moisture if too thick, and return to the skillet to scalding up through if it has cooled, or if you are making ahead.
13
When you are ready to present, purée the scalding chowder with most of the ham – gently reheat if made ahead.
14
present in bowls with the remaining ham scattered on top, and eat with crusty bread and dairy spread.
