You might ask "Why such a title?" I coined this mainly because the jamon de bola I used for this sandwich was from the previous Holiday season's office giveaways. Sorry if you think I wasn't creative enough. Anyway, what's more important is the end product. :-D
What we need:
What we need:
For the glaze, I used 1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice, 2/3 cup brown sugar and 1 tbsp of prepared mustard. The corn bread loaf was from French Baker (crusty outer layer and grainy soft main bread). I bought Washington bright red apples and green lettuce for that Christmas feel. Light mayo compensated for the overflowing calories coming from the other ingredients. :-)
- For the glaze, whisk the juice, brown sugar and mustard in a bowl. Brush the sliced jamon de bola with the mixture. Then cook the remaining glaze under low heat until thickened.
- Put the sliced ham inside a 350° preheated oven. Bake the ham, basting frequently with the reserved thickened glaze, for about 30 minutes.
- Assemble the sandwich by spreading some light mayo on the toasted corn bread, then followed by the lettuce and the apple slices.
- Put 1 or 2 slices of the baked ham then top with a cheddar cheese slice.
- ENJOY! This goes best with ice cold Coke Zero!
Now, doesn't that feel like it's still Christmas? :-P

I just woke up, checked my mail, and read blogs. As soon as I saw your post, I was assaulted by your porcine creation. Sneaky ham sandwich. Ang sarap naman niyan, hindi ako handa. Now, please excuse me while I go to the kitchen, sulking. I have to eat my drab boring breakfast... LOL! :)
Nice one! We can call it the FLC sandwich...Feels Like Christmas! Yummy! :D
