Note

If the original ingredients list includes breadcrumbs, egg yolk, salt, and pepper, you may coat the gammon steaks before frying for a crispier texture, though this is optional for this simple glaze method.

Use firm apples like Granny Smith or Braeburn to ensure they hold up well during sautéing without turning to mush.

For a nut-free version, omit the hazelnuts or almonds and garnish with chopped fresh parsley or chives.

Leftover gammon and apples can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave.
