INGREDIENTS
2 kilos unsmoked boneless gammon joint
1 carrot
1 celery stick
1 onion
1 bay leaf
200 grams fine-cut marmalade
200 grams demerara sugar
300 millilitres dry cider
2 clementines, zest and juice
2 tablespoons
English mustard
2 star anise
1 teaspoons ground cloves
1 teaspoons pepper corns
STEP 1: COOK THE HAM
To give some flavour to the ham chop up your onion, carrot and celery. Add a tsp of pepper corns into a deep saucepan and then add your chopped vegetables and a bay leaf. Sit your ham on top of the vegetables and then fill your pan with water to cover the meat.
Bring the water to a boil and leave to cook for 2 hours. Keep topping up the water to cover the ham so as to ensure the ham doesn't dry out. After two hours your ham should be firm to touch and the skin will have shrunk. Place in a roasting tray and leave to cool.
STEP 2: MAKE THE GLAZE
Pour the cider into a pan and add the marmalade. Next add the mustard and the sugar. Over a medium to high heat bring the mixture to a simmer stirring to ensure all the ingredients are mixed together. Next add the star anise and ground cloves, which will give the ham a really festive flavour.
Give it all a good mix and leave to simmer. Finally add the juice and zest of your clementines. Bring to the boil and leave to simmer for 10-15 minutes until your liquid has become syrup-like.
STEP 3: GLAZE THE HAM
While the glaze is reducing prepare the ham. Cut off the strings on your ham and carefully, with a sharp knife, remove the skin leaving on as much fat as possible. Using a small sharp knife score the skin in a criss-cross motion. Place the ham back into a roasting tin and spoon over with the glaze.
Put into the oven for 30-40, basting every 10 minutes by spooning over more of the glaze. This will ensure you have a really even glaze over the ham. After 40 minutes your ham should be ready and the glaze will have turned toffee-like. Leave to cool until you are ready to serve.
