Ingredients

• 4 Gammon steaks
• 4 Russet potatoes
• 4 Eggs
• 4 cups Vegetable oil
• 200 g Pineapple rings
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 2 cups Peas

Steps

1. Soak the gammon steaks in cold water 30 minutes if they’re very salty — modern gammon is milder, but the soak never hurts. Pat dry.
2. Fry the chips at 325°F until soft, drain, then refry at 375°F until golden and crisp. Salt immediately.
3. Sear the gammon 3 to 4 minutes per side until caramelized at the edges and cooked through. In the last minute, add the pineapple rings to the pan to caramelize.
4. Fry the eggs in butter, keeping the yolks runny.
5. Plate the chips, gammon, pineapple, and egg with a scoop of peas. The great British pub plate — sweet, salty, crisp, and runny all at once.
