LET’S PUT IT ALTOGETHER
1. In a small saucepan place the fruit and juice, brown sugar, tomato sauce, soy and vinegar. Bring to the boil then remove from the heat.
2. Mix the corn flour with the water to form a paste and then stir into the sauce mix.
3. Place back on the heat and stir until it thickens and starts to bubble. Remove from the heat altogether.
4. Place thick cut pieces of ham into a fry pan and heat until each side slightly browns.
5. Place on a plate and spoon over the sauce.
Serve with sweet potato chips and salad.
