Organic Sweet Mustard Glazed Ham

Prepare the perfect glazed ham using this delicious recipe.

Many people believe that organic food simply tastes better, which is why you’ll find a selection of delicious organic ingredients in this recipe.

Ingredients

2 tbsp dark brown cane sugar
50g garlic cloves
2 kg unsmoked boneless gammon joint
1 orange , zest of 1 orange
2 tbsp wholegrain mustard

Method

Place the gammon in a large pan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cover with a lid. Cook allowing 30 minutes per 450g (i.e. a joint weighing 2kg will need about 2 hours 10 minutes).
Preheat the oven to 200ºC/Gas 6. Remove the ham from the water and place on a chopping board. If there is a rind, remove it using a sharp knife. Then make diagonal cuts in the remaining fat, to create diamond shapes and stud the centre of each diamond with a clove.
Mix the orange zest with the mustard and smear over the fat. Once covered with the mix sprinkle with the sugar. Stand the meat in a roasting tin, fat side up and cook in the preheated oven 15 minutes until glazed.
Remove from the heat and allow to cool if serving cold. Alternatively, let the meat rest for about 20 minutes before carving.

In The Spotlight

Nala's Dream by Taylan Kurtul

Nala’s Dream is a magical children’s story with an incredibly poignant story behind it. It was first imagined by five-year-old Taylan Kurtul, who dreamed up an adventure in which his real-life kitten, Nala, travels into space. Taylan sadly died in February 2024, just eight months after being diagnosed with a medulloblastoma brain tumour. His mum lovingly brought the story he created to life as a book in his memory, celebrating Taylan’s wonderful imagination while raising vital funds for Brain Tumour Research. A beautiful legacy filled with adventure, love and a little boy’s magic.
