Maple-glazed gammon with cardamom-and-ginger piccalilli

By Abigail Donnelly
10
Easy
30 minutes
3 hours

Ingredients

  • 1 onion, halved
  • 1 carrot
  • 1 celery stalk
  • 4 bay leaves
  • ± 4 kg bone-in gammon
  • Cloves, to garnish
  • For the glaze, mix:

  • 1 cup orange marmalade
  • 4 T crystallised ginger, roughly chopped (plus some of the preserving liquid)
  • 1 cup maple syrup

Method

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a simmer and add the onion, carrot, celery and bay leaves. Add the gammon and cook for 2 hours. Remove and set aside.
  2. Remove the top layer of skin from the gammon, working slowly to ensure you don’t cut into the fat underneath. Score the fat in a crosshatch pattern, studding each corner with a clove.
  3. Preheat the oven to 180°C. Place the gammon on a roasting tray and roast for 15 minutes, then drizzle over half the glaze, ensuring all the gammon is covered.
  4. Return the gammon to the oven for a further 15–20 minutes, or until sticky. Baste the gammon with the remaining glaze and roast for a further 15 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven and rest for 20 minutes. Slice and serve with the piccalilli.
