    I liked this, the ham was lovely sticky and you could taste the sweetness of the sweet chilli sauce complimented the ham. I stir-fried my green cabbage in oil and dry sherry which seemed to bring out the flavours in the sauce and served it with steamed Jasmin rice. I'm planning to try this recipe with leftover turkey to see if it works just as well.
