It ain’t Christmas without a ham, amirite? There’s just something so quintessentially Kiwi about ham sandwiches on fresh white bread at Christmas time (the only time I actually eat white bread).
This year, we’re keeping it really simple and have asked my parents for a Christmas ham as our gift (my Mum does the best honey glazed ham with cloves – yum).
But what do you do when the sight of a ham sammie is just too much to bear? When you’re all hammed-out but can’t bear to waste any.
What is a mother to do with all the leftover ham taking up space in the fridge?
Never fear, KMM has a solution. Fire up your Instapot or Slow Cooker and try out these leftover ham recipes.
