Blood Orange Marmalade, Ginger & Sriracha Glazed Ham
SERVES: 18 • TOTAL TIME: 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES
Ingredients:
1 x 8 - 10kg ham leg, rind removed
300 g jar blood orange marmalade
¼ cup brown sugar
1 ½ tbsp finely grated fresh ginger
1 tbsp sriracha hot chilli sauce
Directions:
Preheat oven to 200˚C. Meanwhile, using a sharp knife, score the ham fat (not the flesh) crossways at 1 centimetre intervals. Wrap the hock in foil to prevent burning.
Place ham on a greased rack in a large baking dish lined with foil.
To make the glaze, combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to the boil, stirring, over medium-high heat. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes or until slightly thickened.
Brush the ham fat a few times to evenly coat with the glaze. Bake, for 50 minutes to 1 hour, brushing with remaining glaze occasionally, or until ham is golden and caramelised. Set aside to cool for 30 minutes.
2022 Lock & Key Pinot Noir is the perfect accompaniment to this ham:
Beautifully fragrant with lifted red fruits, strawberry and floral aromas and earthy undertones. A seductive palate opens with pure red cherry and strawberry fruit flavours, following on to darker secondary characters of game and cured meats. The texture is pure Pinot; refined, polished and silky.
