Recipe: Peter’s Glazed Baked Christmas Ham

Peter's Glazed Ham Recipe


INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp dried mustard
  • Cup cider vinegar
  • Cup maple syrup
  • 1 ham leg (preferably Kurobuta)
  • 1 cup cloves

METHOD:

To make the glaze, place the brown sugar, dried mustard, cider vinegar and maple syrup in a bowl and mix until all ingredients are combined.

To prepare the ham, with a sharp knife carefully remove the skin, making sure the fat stays on the meat. Use a knife to score the fat in a criss-cross pattern and tuck the cloves in the cross-sections in a regular pattern. Place the ham in a baking tray and apply half the glazing mixture evenly over the ham. Bake the ham at 180 degrees for about 30 minutes or until the outsides are golden brown. Remove from the oven and, while the ham is still warm, apply the remaining glaze.

To serve, simply slice to serve. This dish is perfect hot or cold.
