Equipment

  • Baking tray
  • Saucepan
  • Wooden spoon
  • Cup
  • Oven

Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 ham around 2 kg
  • 5 tbsp honey
  • 3 tbsp wholegrain mustard

Instructions
 

  • Calculate the cooking time. Allow 20 minutes per 450 g of ham.
  • Remove the outer wrappings and place ham in a saucepan. Cover with cold water, place the lid on top and bring to the boil.
  • Boil for the length of time you have calculated, or as indicated on the ham's cooking instructions.
  • At the end of the cooking time, turn the heat off and leave the ham sitting in the hot water for about 10 minutes – this will make it easier to carve.
  • Drain off the water and place the ham on a baking tray. Preheat the oven to 160°C / 320°F / Gas Mark 3.
  • Cover the ham on the baking tray with foil and roast for 30 minutes.
  • In a cup, mix up the honey with the wholegrain mustard.
  • Remove the foil and spread over the surface of the ham using the back of a spoon or a knife.
  • Roast for a further 15 minutes until golden brown, basting once or twice during cooking with the honey glaze.
