Ham Steak & Cranberry Mustard Sauce
Ham Steak with Cranberry Mustard Sauce Our local grocery store had a sale on ham steaks, so we picked up a few for the freezer and one for dinner that night. Checking in the larder I spied a package of dried cranberries, and that got me thinking (always a dangerous thing).
Directions
- Prepare the sauce before beginning to cook the steak.
- In a saute pan put the sugar,vinegar and water and on medium heat stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Once the sugar is dissolved take the pan off the heat and add the mustard, lemon juice, cornstarch and cranberries and stir to combine and then put back on the heat and slowly bring up to boil.
- As the sauce reaches boiling point it will begin to thicken.
- Once thickened place on low heat to hold covered (allowing the sauce to steep brings out the cranberry flavor) and begin the steak.
- Cook the steak by what ever method you feel comfortable with.
- I like to grill mine on medium high heat for about 10 minutes.
- Once the ham steak is cooked , slice into serving pieces and spoon the sauce over it.
- Serve extra sauce on the side.
