• 4 - 4.5Kg ham cooked on the bone or ½ ham

Cracker Cranberry

Wattie's® Bit on the Side® Cracker Cranberry is a fruity and slightly tart sauce that is perfect for glazing turkey and ham, as a pizza topping or with cheese. Available in a 300g bottle.

Method

1. Carefully run your fingers under the skin of the ham to lift it away. Do this slowly so you finish with a smooth layer of fat. Place ham in a foil-lined roasting dish.

2. Using a small sharp knife cut the ham fat layer into a diamond pattern.

3. Mix together Wattie’s Bit on The Side Cracker Cranberry, Cottee’s Maple Flavoured Syrup and orange zest. Brush liberally over the ham. Pour 2 cups of water around the ham.

4. To glaze and serve hot, bake at 160°C allowing 15 minutes per Kg, brushing with glaze every 15 minutes. It maybe necessary to top up the water during cooking. To glaze and serve cold, bake at 180°C for 35-40 minutes, brushing with glaze every 15 minutes.

5. Garnish with cloves and star anise before serving.
