Recipe - Asian Style Braised Ham Steak (Mf)

1 pound Ham steak, 1 inch thick
One fourth cup Light soy sauce
One fourth cup Dry sherry wine
1 tablespoon Butter or vegetable oil, (up
to 2)
1 teaspoon Minced fresh ginger
One fourth cup Water
Salt and freshly ground
black pepper
One fourth cup Finely cut or sliced up green onions

Remove rind and trim off all but 1/4inch of outer fat. Score the fat edge
at 1inch intervals so the steak does not curl during cooking and divide
ham steak into 2 serving pieces. Marinate ham in soy sauce and sherry wine.
Remove ham from marinade. Reserve marinade.

Dry the ham steak and lightly brown in butter for a minute or 2 on both
sides. Add ginger, water and reserved marinade to the skillet and bring to
a boil. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through. Remove ham to
a serving platter. Boil the liquid down until syrupy and season to taste
with salt and pepper. Stir in the scallions and spoon sauce over steak.
