An easy-to-make and satisfying hot supper dish, this can be served with mashed potatoes and a green vegetable. If fresh apricots are not available, drained, canned apricots may be substituted. They should be put on the gammon slices without additional cooking and the syrup in which they are packed can be used in the baking.
The brandy in this recipe may be omitted but it does make a dish of poached apricots into a more delicious dessert.
This dish is reminiscent of ‘Tagine’ a stew cooked in the traditional Moroccan pointed earthenware pot. Honey was originally used to offset the saltiness of some meats and has remained one of the ingredients to this day.
