Ginger Beer & Tangerine Glazed Ham

Prep Time : 20 mins
Cook Time: 4 hrs, 10 mins
Serves 8
Pre heat oven 220oc

WHAT YOU NEEDWHAT YOU NEED TO DO
Put the gammon, onion, tangerine zest and star anise in a large pan. Pour over all but 100ml of the ginger beer and, if necessary, top up with water so the gammon is just covered.

Bring to the boil, skim the surface to remove any fat, reduce to a simmer, then cover and cook for 3-3.1/2 hrs or until the meat is tender.

When the gammon is cooked remove it from the pan. Cool, cover and chill at this stage if you want to prepare ahead – bring back to room temp before continuing.

Carefully cut the skin off the gammon, making sure to leave a layer of fat, then lightly score the fat into diamond shapes. Place it in a roasting tin lined with foil.

Warm the honey, mustard and reserved 100ml ginger beer in a pan and boil until it thickens. Spoon over the fat then stud a clover into the middle of each diamond.

Bake for 20-25 mins or until the glaze has caramelised. If you did prepare ahead add another 10 mins to the cooking time. Slice and eat warm or cold.
