Ingredients

  • 1 uncooked ham hock or ham joint (from a butcher shop)

  9. Remove from the heat and release the pressure.
  10. Put the contents into a bowl with the butter, and mix with a balloon type whisk.

  12. Serve on white bread or stottie cake, alone or with ham from the hock. Refrigerate when cool.

Notes

The amount of split peas added changes the consistency and the setting time.
