Stuff the Turkey

Glaz'n Ham this Christmas

The only thing we want stuffed this Christmas is our stockings. So forget the turkey and feed the family with a simply delicious glazed ham this Christmas.

Here is a fabulous recipe courtesy of Matt Moran from Aria Restaurant:

Baked Christmas Ham with Maple Syrup and Clove Glaze

Ingredients

1 cup brown sugar
2 tsp dried mustard
¼ cup cider vinegar
¼ cup maple syrup
1 leg of Vic's Meat Kurobuta Ham
¼ cup cloves

Method

Place the brown sugar, dried mustard, cider vinegar and maple syrup in a bowl and mix together until all ingredients are combined to make the glaze. Use a sharp knife to carefully remove the skin, making sure the fat remains on the meat. Use a knife to score the fat in a criss-cross pattern and place the cloves in the cross sections evenly over the ham. Then place the ham in a baking tray and pour over the glazing mixture. Bake at 180˚C for approx 30 minutes or until the outside has turned a golden brown colour, basting the ham with a brush 4-5 times throughout this process.

To serve

Simply slice to serve. This dish is perfect hot or cold.

So Ham it up. Order with Vics Meats and they'll deliver your ham to your home in Hammer Time!
