Marmalade and Maple Glazed Ham
Tasty and perfect for your Christmas Day spread!
How long will it take?
1 hour 45 minutes
What’s the serving size?
Serves 18
What do I need?
- 1 x 7-8 kg ham leg, skin removed
- 50 whole garlic cloves
For the glaze
- 1 cup orange marmalade
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Dijon mustard
How do I make it?
- Preheat oven to 180C.
- Using a sharp knife, score the ham fat (not the flesh) at 2-centimetre intervals into a honeycomb pattern. Insert a clove into each diamond of fat. Wrap the ham hock with foil (this prevents it from burning).
- Place ham on a greased rack in a large baking dish lined with foil. Brush ham fat with half of the glaze. Roast for 55-65 minutes, brushing with remaining glaze every 15 minutes, until ham is golden and caramelised. Slice and serve warm or cold.
