Method

• Preheat oven to 180C Remove skin from the ham – The skin is just the tough brown layer not the fat!! Carefully run a sharp knife around seam of skin and pull gently as you are carefully separating the layers
• Once you have removed the skin you will be left with the leg of ham covered in white thick fat (this is good)
• Using a sharp knife score a diamond pattern across the fat, trying not to go too deep, and place into a large roasting pan and set aside
• Combine remaining ingredients in a bowl, season to taste
• Brush the glaze over the ham ensuring that the ham is completely covered
• Transfer to the oven and baste regularly until glaze begins to set (30-40 minutes), then increase oven to 200C and baste regularly until ham is golden and glazed (40-50 minutes)
• The beautiful glazed ham can be eaten hot or at room temperature
