Ginger Beer Glazed Ham
Ginger and spice and all things nice. There’s not much nicer than Aussie grown ham coated in sticky, sweet ginger glaze. Grab our leg ham from Woollies and give this a go!
what you need
- 1 Three Aussie Farmers 1/2 Leg Ham on the Bone
- 500ml ginger beer
- 300g light brown soft sugar
- 3 Tbsp. fresh ginger, finely grated
- 20 whole cloves
how to make it
- Pre-heat fan forced oven to 150⁰C.
- Remove skin from the ham, leaving a layer of fat behind. Score in a crisscross pattern to form diamonds and poke a clove into the diamonds.
- Combine glaze ingredients in a saucepan over med. heat and bring to a simmer. Reduce to low and cook for approx. 30 mins or until reduced by half.
- Transfer ham to a rack in a foil-lined roasting tin, brush ham generously with half the glaze and place in the oven to roast for 15 mins.
- Roast ham, basting with remaining glaze every 15-20 mins for 2 hrs or until caramelised.
- Glaze with the remaining liquid and leave to cool for 15 mins.
- Carve and drizzle with juices from the pan.
- Serve & enjoy
