For the glaze:

  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar

For the ham:

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. Preheat oven according to your ham’s cooking directions. Line a roasting tray with baking paper.
  2. In a small saucepan, combine honey, orange zest, orange juice, cinnamon, cloves and apple-cider vinegar.
  3. Warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the glaze is smooth and fragrant.
  4. Prepare the ham by removing the rind and scoring the fat in a diamond pattern.
  5. Brush a generous layer of glaze over the ham before placing it in the oven.

  7. Rest before carving and serve warm with extra glaze.

FUZZY BUM TIP

The orange juice reduces with the honey, creating a natural caramelisation without adding sugar. The result? Sticky, glossy, sweet – and full of flavour.
