Indian coleslaw with gammon

Method

1. Put the gammon in a large pan with the onion, carrot and bay leaves. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 2 hours until tender. Lift out of the water and cool slightly. Peel off the skin. Preheat the oven to 220°C/fan200°C/gas 7. Put the gammon in a roasting tin, spread with the mustard and sprinkle with the demerara sugar, then roast for 20-25 minutes.
2. For the coleslaw, heat the oil in the widest-bottomed pan you have and when it is hot, throw in the mustard seeds. Cover the pot with a lid as the seeds will begin to pop. Give them about 20 seconds. Remove the lid and add the chilli, carrot and cabbage. Stir-fry everything for about a minute, then add the salt and sugar. Stir-fry for a further minute. Stir in the lemon juice, and remove from the heat after another minute. Check the seasoning. The coleslaw should be crunchy with a sweet and sour taste. Serve hot or cold with the gammon.
