What each ingredient does
- Slices of ham
- Thin slices cook quickly over high heat, browning on the outside while staying tender inside.
The step that matters
Turning the slices after one minute. Ham that sits too long on one side can dry out or char before the other side heats through. Turning at the set time gives even heat and a more uniform texture.
