Method

Put the gammon into a saucepan or flameproof casserole dish just big enough to contain it comfortably, and pour in the cider. Top up with enough cold water to cover, add the bouquet garni and bring to simmering point. Reduce the heat, pop the lid on and simmer gently for 1½ hours (30 minutes per 450g/1 lb, plus 30 minutes). Lift the ham from the cooking pot, cover with foil and allow to rest.</
