Braised carrots, a cucumber salad, and some steamed new potatoes sprinkled with chopped fresh dill are good choices to accompany this Swedish-inspired dish. Holiday cookies and mugs of hot apple cider make a happy ending. Ingredients:
1 8-ounce (scant 1/2 inch thick) ham steak, cut into 2 pieces |
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter |
2 tablespoons minced shallots |
2 teaspoons dry mustard |
1/4 cup lingonberries in sugar (preserves) or whole-berry cranberry sauce |
2 tablespoons water |
1 1/2 tablespoons red wine vinegar |
Directions:
1. Sprinkle ham generously with pepper. Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add ham and sauté until brown at edges, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer ham to plates; tent with foil to keep warm. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon butter to same skillet. Add shallots and mustard and stir until shallots begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Mix in lingonberries, water and red wine vinegar. Stir until sauce thickens, about 1 minute; season sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over ham and serve. |
