- Preheat the Air Fryer:
- Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
- Prepare the Glaze:
- In a small bowl, mix together the whole grain mustard, honey (or maple syrup), olive oil, ground black pepper, and paprika. This will be your glaze.
- Score the Gammon:
- Using a sharp knife, score the surface of the gammon in a crisscross pattern. This helps the glaze to penetrate and adds a decorative touch.
- Apply the Glaze:
- Brush the gammon with the prepared glaze, ensuring it covers the entire surface.
- Air Fry the Gammon:
- Place the glazed gammon in the air fryer basket or on the air fryer tray, ensuring there is space around it for air circulation.
- Cook:
- Air fry the gammon for approximately 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the joint. Baste the gammon with additional glaze halfway through the cooking time.
- Check for Doneness:
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The gammon is done when it reaches at least 140°F (60°C).
- Rest and Slice:
- Allow the gammon to rest for a few minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
- Garnish (Optional):
- Garnish with fresh herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, if desired.
- Serve:
- Serve your air-fried gammon slices with your favorite sides or use it as a main dish.
- Enjoy:
- Enjoy your flavorful and crispy Air Fryer Gammon!
This method produces a gammon with a deliciously caramelized exterior while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Adjust the cooking time based on the size and thickness of your gammon joint.
