  • If you are making eggs, mist two silicone molds with cooking spray and add them to the air fryer on top of the ham.
  • Cook for a further 4-5 minutes or until gammon steaks register 145°F and 3-4 minutes for pre-cooked ham steaks 140°F.
  • If cooking eggs, make sure the egg white is set before removing from the air fryer.
  • Serve with the egg, pineapple, and chips (which you can also cook in the air fryer). Absolutely delicious!

Notes

While gammon steaks are already cooked, gaman steaks are not. After gammon is cooked, it turns into gammon. Thus, uncooked gammon steaks are referred to as gammon steaks by those at the back. Because you are simply reheating them, gammon steaks cook more quickly.
