Pineapple Glazed Ham
This mouth watering pineapple glazed ham will wow everyone that comes your way this NZ summer. And only 5 ingredients.
Ingredients
- 1 cooked smoked bone-in ham (3–4 kg)
- 1 ½ tbsp whole cloves
- 2 cups pineapple juice
- 1 cups light-brown sugar
- ¼ cups Dijon mustard
Instructions
- With a sharp knife, remove skin and all but 5mm fat from ham, then score a diamond pattern into fat. Press in a clove at each diamond point. Place ham in a pan and roast in 180°C oven for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make glaze by bringing pineapple juice, brown sugar, and mustard to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Gently boil until thickened and reduced by about half. This takes about half an hour.
- Brush ham with glaze and roast for 15 minutes; then repeat, for a total roasting time of 30 minutes. Remove ham from oven and let rest for 15 minutes. Discard cloves and carve ham into slices.
- Serve with the leftover pineapple glaze, a colourful salad and pavlova for dessert. Or even better, slice the ham and enjoy between thick, buttered slices of bread. Kiwi as!
