Time:2 hours +Serves:~10, depending on the size of your ham.

A ham glaze needs to have a balance of sweet and sour to offset the salty ham, but the key is a lug of something savoury, like soy sauce, so that it doesn't taste like a jam.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp coriander seeds

  • ¼ tsp black peppercorns

  • 2 peaches, peeled and diced, stone removed

  • ¾ cup soft brown sugar

  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

  • ½ cup white wine

  • juice of 1 lemon

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 whole leg of ham (around 6-8kg)

Method

  1. Step 1

    Heat your oven to 180C (160C fan-forced). In a small pan, toast the coriander seeds and black peppercorns until fragrant then grind to a coarse powder with a mortar and pestle.

  2. Step 2

    Return the pan to the heat and add the peaches, sugar, soy sauce and white wine. Simmer for 5 minutes until the peaches break down.

  3. Step 3

    Puree with a hand mixer and stir through the lemon juice and olive oil. Remove the skin from the ham and score the fat.

  4. Step 4

    Brush liberally with the glaze and roast for about 1½ hours (for a 6kg ham) to 2 hours (for an 8kg ham), brushing with more glaze every 20 minutes or so until the ham is sticky and warmed through.
