Ingredients

  • A generous dollop of rich butter
  • Tender strips of savory cooked ham, sliced to perfection
  • A hint of sweetness with a sprinkle of golden brown sugar
  • Creamy indulgence from a can of condensed cream of mushroom soup
  • Velvety richness from evaporated milk, a touch of water for balance
  • Fragrant chopped onion adding depth of flavor
  • Just the right amount of seasoning with a pinch of salt and a dash of ground black pepper
  • Layers of thinly sliced potatoes waiting to soak up all the flavors
  • Vibrant bite-sized carrot pieces adding a pop of color and sweetness

Step 1

In a generously sized skillet, gently melt the butter over medium heat until it sizzles invitingly. Introduce the savory ham and a sprinkle of brown sugar, letting them mingle and dance together in the pan. Stir occasionally, allowing the ham to take on a delightful golden hue, a process that typically takes around 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the now caramelized ham to a waiting plate, while ensuring the flavorful drippings remain in the skillet, ready to work their magic.

Step 2

Into this fragrant symphony of flavors, gently fold in the cream of mushroom soup, luscious evaporated milk, a splash of water, finely chopped onion, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Add in the thinly sliced potatoes and tender carrot pieces, gently nestling them into the rich sauce. Cover the skillet, lower the heat to a gentle simmer, and allow the ingredients to meld and soften, a process that takes approximately 35 minutes.

Step 3

As the kitchen fills with tempting aromas, reintroduce the ham to the skillet, letting it warm through and soak up the surrounding flavors for about 10 more minutes. Finally, once the ham is heated through and the dish is infused with layers of flavor, it's time to serve up this comforting and satisfying meal.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your brown sugar fresh by storing it in an airtight container. This will prevent clumping and ensure it stays soft and easy to work with.
  2. 2. For potatoes, store them in a cool, dark place like a pantry or cellar. Avoid storing them near onions or garlic, as they can cause potatoes to spoil faster.
