Neven Maguire's Spiced Mango Glazed Ham

INGREDIENTS

• 2kg Simply Better West Cork Unsmoked Gammon Joint
• 1 Onion, sliced
• 2 Celery Sticks, roughly chopped
• 1 Tbsp Black Peppercorns
• 30 Whole Cloves
• 3 Tbsp Simply Better Irish Wholegrain Mustard
• 2 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
• 1 Jar Simply Better Handmade Spiced Mango Chutney

METHOD

1. Rinse the ham with fresh water and put in a pan of boiling water. Add the onion, celery and peppercorns. Bring to a simmer over a low heat and cook for 2 hours. Leave to cool in the liquid.
2. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6). Remove the ham from the pan and place in a baking tin. Using a sharp knife, cut off the skin, leaving the fat on top and score diagonally into a diamond pattern. Pour around 500ml of the cooking liquid which will help to keep the joint moist.
3. Press the cloves into the ham and then combine the mustard, balsamic vinegar and chutney in a bowl. Spread over the ham and roast for 30 minutes, basting regularly, until cooked through and nicely glazed.
4. Remove from the oven and leave to rest for at least 15 minutes or up to 1 hour, covered loosely with tin foil before slicing and serving.
