It's hard to beat gammon, egg and chips for a classic British dinner. This has double the egg for hungry appetites. A few peas wouldn't go amiss either. Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/Gas 6.

Spread the chips ... add the peas and fry for a further 1 minute. Add the remaining oil, shake the pan to evenly distribute the greens, and turn the heat up to high. Pour in the egg mixture ...

Carefully put the chips on a tray in one layer, season with salt, and allow to cool. Combine the water, sugar and salt in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Add the peas and cook for 2 minutes.
