GINGER GLAZED HAM

Prep Time: 20 mins
Cook Time: 1 hour
Serves: 12

INGREDIENTS

• 3.5kg semi-boneless picnic shoulder ham
• 1 small orange, unpeeled, halved and thinly sliced
• 1 lemon, unpeeled, halved and thinly sliced
• 15 whole cloves
• 1/2 cup Buderim Ginger Original Ginger Marmalade
• 1/2 cup Buderim Ginger Ginger Refresher
• 1 1/2 tablespoons wholegrain mustard

METHOD

STEP 1

Preheat oven to 180°C or 160°C fan. Line a roasting pan with foil. Using a small knife, cut around ham shank in a zigzag pattern, about 10cm from the end. To remove rind from ham, run a knife under rind right around edge of ham. Gently lift off rind in one piece by running your fingers between rind and fat.

STEP 2

Using toothpicks to secure, arrange orange and lemon slices over ham. Stud with cloves. Place ham in prepared pan. Combine Original Ginger Marmalade and Ginger Refresher in a small saucepan over moderate heat. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 mins, or until thickened slightly. Stir in mustard. Brush glaze evenly over ham.

STEP 3

Bake, basting occasionally with pan juices, for 55-60 mins, or until golden-brown. Let ham stand for 5 mins. Carve ham to serve.
