Remove from heat and stir in flour gradually. Add water or stock. Return to heat. Add sugar and bring to the boil. Simmer gently for about 2 minutes to cook flour. If sauce seems a little thick, add more water or stock. Add whiskey and season to taste. Place ham steaks on a serving platter and pour on sauce.
