Gammon & eggs (with Nanny Betty)

This is a bit of a British classic, but I'm taking it up a notch and promoting it from a simple brunch to a good lunch or dinner. Flattening the gammon as it cooks means it gets great colour and character, and the mustard gives it a good bit of attitude. Give it a try.
