Fried Ham
Ingredients
Directions
Melt a little bacon fat or dripping in a frying pan.
Add the ham and fry gently until cooked, turning it six to eight times to prevent it from becoming hard.
Once done, lift the ham onto a hot dish.
Add a little more fat to the frying pan.
Break the eggs into a cup and slip them into the hot fat, frying gently until set.
