Note
from Cheri:
This Irish recipe takes advantage of one of the Emerald
Isle's best exports: Irish Whiskey. It makes a good
entree for a St. Patrick's Day dinner or anytime you
want a change of pace.
4 ham steaks
2 tsp. onion,
finely chopped
1 tsp. brown
sugar
2 tsp. Irish Whiskey
1 T flour
1 T butter,
melted
3/4 c water or stock salt
and pepper
to taste
Serves 4
Brush
ham steaks with melted butter. Snip fat to prevent curling, and
grill for 7-8 minutes each side.
Sauce Sauté
onions in remainder of butter until cooked. 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.
