Fried Ham

Cut off a thick slice of ham, place it in a saucepan over the fire in sufficient cold water to cover, and let the water come to the boil. Pour it off, put the ham over the fire and fry slowly until it is brown on both sides. Then season with pepper, and serve. Eggs are usually served with fried ham. They may be fried in the same pan or separately in sufficient fat to prevent burning, seasoned with pepper and salt, and placed round the dish and over the ham.
