Asian Style Braised Ham Steak 1 lb Ham steak, 1 inch thick
1/4 c Light soy sauce
1/4 c Dry sherry wine
1 tb Butter or vegetable oil, (up to 2)
1 ts Minced fresh ginger
1/4 c Water
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c Finely sliced green onions
Remove rind and trim off all but 1/4-inch of outer fat. Score the fat
edge at 1-inch intervals so the steak does not curl during cooking
and divide ham steak into 2 serving pieces. Marinate ham in soy sauce
and sherry wine. Remove ham from marinade. Reserve marinade.
Dry the ham steak and lightly brown in butter for a minute or 2 on
both sides. Add ginger, water and reserved marinade to the skillet
and bring to a boil. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until heated
through. Remove ham to a serving platter. Boil the liquid down until
syrupy and season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in the
scallions and spoon sauce over steak. Yield: 2 servings
