Recipe for a 4 kg Christmas Ham
Ingredients:
- 4 kg Ham on the Bone
- ½ cup Chang's Hoisin Sauce
- ¼ cup orange juice
- 2 tbs lemon juice
- 2 tbs honey
- 1 tbs Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp ground ginger OR grated fresh ginger
Method:
- Preheat oven to 165C fan-forced.
- Place all glaze ingredients in a saucepan and bring to boil. Simmer for 3 minutes, take off heat and allow to cool while preparing ham.
- Prepare ham by removing skin (if skin still on), caution not to damage layer of fat underneath. Next score ham using a sharp knife in thin straight lines.
- Brush the fat with 1/3 of the glaze and then place into preheated oven for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes remove from oven and re-glaze with the second third of the glaze. Repeat this in a third time in another 30 minutes and bake for a final half-hour (total cooking time 1.5 hours). Remember to turn the baking dish in the oven for even colouring.
- Once cooked allow to sit for 15 minutes before calving and serving.
