Maple, honey and spice-basted ham with glazed pears Recipe
Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 180°C. Remove skin from ham, leaving fat on. Score fat in a diamond pattern. Place ham on a rack in a baking pan and fill with 5cm water. Set aside.
Step 2
Warm sugar, syrup, honey and mustard in a pan over medium-high heat, stirring until combined. Brush glaze over ham, then bake for 45 minutes, basting every 15 minutes, until golden and caramelised.
Step 3
Meanwhile, for pears, remove rind from lemon in long strips, then halve lemon. Peel and quarter pears, then rub with lemon. Place in a pan with lemon rind, sugar, syrup, cinnamon, vanilla and enough water to cover. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes or until pears are tender. Remove pears with a slotted spoon, increase heat to medium-high and simmer for 8-10 minutes until sauce is syrupy. Add cranberries for the final 5 minutes of cooking. Remove from heat and return pears to pan. Cool.
Step 4
Thinly slice ham, then serve with pears and berries, drizzled with some of the syrup and garnished with chervil, if using.
