Holiday Deep Fried Ham Recipe 385

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, beat eggs and milk. In another bowl, combine the bread crumbs, cheese and parsley. Dip ham cubes in egg mixture, then roll in crumb mixture. , In an electric skillet, heat 1/4 in. of oil to 375°. Fry ham cubes, a few at a time, for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Drain on paper towels., In a small saucepan, heat cheese and milk over medium heat for 3-4 minutes or until cheese is melted. Remove from the heat; stir in salsa. Serve with ham cubes.

Steps:

• Use a large skillet; pour enough oil to cover the bottom of the skillet.
• Heat oil over medium heat.
• On a plate, place enough flour to cover the plate.
• Then rolled your ham in the flour until well coated.
• When oil is starting to sizzle place ham in the skillet.
• Cook until golden brown on both sides.
• Placed on paper towels to drained the excess oil off.

Steps:

• Thaw ham completely and pat dry.
• (When deep frying moisture on the surface will cause a lot of oil popping and splattering, be careful) Marinade (if using) Inject whatever marinade you want to use into several place throughout the ham (I recommend 10-15 spots).
• Place the ham in the steamer basket that comes with most turkey deep fryers and CAREFULLY and SLOWLY lower the ham into the hot oil (350-375 degrees).
• There is a lot of water in the ham!
• Since I couldn't put it in otherwise you must cook the ham about 3 1/2 to 4 minutes per pound depending on the size of the ham and how much it cools down the oil.
• Obviously a smaller ham will take less time if the oil is hotter and a bigger ham will take longer even with the oil hot.
• If when you start the oil cools down don't worry just watch the temp and adjust your cooking time.
• Also for a bigger ham you would want to use less oil in the deep fryer so it doesn't overflow when the ham is lowered inches.

Steps:

• 1. Combine flour, baking powder a pinch of salt and corn starch blending well.Set aside. Sprinkle chops or ham pieces with Cajun seasoning on all sides. Dip the chops or ham into the buttermilk and then dredge into flour mixture.
• 2. Preheat oil in deep fryer to 350^ degrees. Once the oil is hot, slide the chops or ham pieces carefully into the deep fryer and cook about 6 to 8 minutes, or until nicely browned, making sure the chops are submerged. Do in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding the fryer.
• 3. Mustard Sauce: Mix all ingredients together. Drizzle over cooked meat just before serving, or serve on the side at the table.

Steps:

• In an outdoor turkey fryer kind of contraption heat several gallons of peanut oil to 375.
• You can use the oil left over from frying a cajun turkey- it is seasoned and hot already and just perfect.
• Lower the ham - unwrapped of course- into the hot oil.
• Do not do anything to the ham- just remove from package.
• As the ham fries it will 'seal' the outside with a type of crust like crispy bacon and seal all the juices inside.
• Fry about 7-9 minutes- longer will give you MORE crust, shorter will produce less crust. You may need to make this recipe a few times before you find the perfect 'doneness' for you.
• Carefully remove from oil and let drain and cool a little.
• Slice as you would any spiral cut ham.
• Serve!
