How to cook gammon joint In, COSORI Dual Air Fryer, 8.5L

Cooking a gammon joint in a COSORI Dual Air Fryer that has an 8.5L capacity is a great way to achieve a deliciously cooked dish with a crispy exterior. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you prepare your gammon joint:

### Ingredients:
- Gammon joint (size according to your air fryer capacity)
- Honey or brown sugar (optional, for glazing)
- Mustard or other seasonings (optional)

### Equipment:
- COSORI Dual Air Fryer (8.5L)

### Instructions:

1. **Preparation**: 
   - Take the gammon joint out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes.
   - If your gammon is raw, soak it in cold water for a few hours (or overnight) to reduce saltiness.

2. **Seasoning**:
   - Score the fat on the gammon joint in a crisscross pattern. This helps with rendering fat and adds to the presentation.
   - Rub the joint with your choice of seasonings such as mustard, honey, brown sugar, or any preferred spices.

3. **Preheat the Air Fryer**:
   - Preheat your COSORI Air Fryer to around 160-180°C (320-355°F). 

4. **Cooking**:
   - Place the gammon joint in the air fryer basket. Ensure that it fits comfortably without touching the heating element.
   - Cook the gammon joint for approximately 25-30 minutes per kg (2.2 pounds) or until the internal temperature reaches 70°C (160°F) using a meat thermometer.
   - Halfway through cooking, you may want to turn the joint for even cooking.

5. **Basting (optional)**:
   - If you have applied a glaze, baste the gammon joint with it halfway through the cooking time for extra flavor and a shiny finish.

6. **Check for Doneness**: 
   - Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature has reached 70°C (160°F). If you are using a pre-cooked joint, you may just need to heat it through to your preference.

7. **Resting**:
   - Once cooked, remove the gammon from the air fryer and let it rest for about 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute.

8. **Serving**:
   - Slice the gammon joint and serve it warm with your choice of sides, such as vegetables or potatoes.

### Tips:
- Adjust cooking times as necessary based on the size of your gammon joint and the air fryer model.
- You may want to cover the joint with foil for the first part of the cooking if you find it browning too quickly, then uncover it for the last few minutes to allow for crisping.

Enjoy your deliciously cooked gammon joint!
