Old Fashioned Ham Salad
This is an excellent ham salad and is very easy to prepare. Serve as a snack or appetizer on crackers, or in a sandwich for a lunch or dinner.
Ingredients
- 2 cups ham, fat removed, minced, (about 325 g / 11-12 oz ham)
- 1 tablespoon onion, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon mustard powder
- 1 tablespoon sweet pickle relish, or minced sweet pickle and a bit of juice
- mayo, as needed
Instructions
- Use a meat grinder, or a cleaver and a chopping block, and mince the ham, add the onion, mustard, and pickle. Mix together. I used diced sweet gherkins.
- Add and mix in mayo, a heaping tablespoon at a time, until you have achieved a creamy consistency. Serve on crackers, crackers and cheese, or use as a filling for sandwiches. Enjoy.
Notes
Nice ham slices can be bought at Makro if you do not have ham on hand. If using sliced ham from Makro, the type that comes 6 slices in a package of 1 kilo, use 2 slices.
