Ingredients

  • 2 large unwaxed oranges
  • 2800 g fully cooked ready-to-eat bone-in spiral-sliced half ham
  • 170 g runny honey
  • 30 g Dijon mustard
  • 1 g ground cloves

Preparation

  1. Preheat the conventional oven to 160 °C. Wash and dry the oranges. Finely grate the zest from one orange without taking the white pith and weigh out 2 g. Squeeze that orange, strain the juice and measure out 80 ml. Cut the other orange into rounds about 6 mm thick. Whisk the honey, measured juice and zest, mustard and cloves in a bowl.

  2. Arrange the orange slices in a roasting dish and place the ham on top, cut side down. Brush with a thin layer of glaze and cover the dish tightly with foil. Bake for about 80–100 min, until the centre reaches 60 °C, with the probe in the meat without touching the bone.

  3. Remove the foil and turn on the oven grill. Carefully turn the ham so the fatty side faces up, supporting it with tongs and a large spatula. Brush with all the remaining glaze. Grill for about 3–5 min, watching constantly, until golden and caramelised without burning. Baste with the pan juices and serve, cutting the slices away from the bone.
