Serves: Serves 10 

Prep Time:  10 minutes 

Cook Time: 45 minutes 

INGREDIENTS  

• ¼ champagne ham (approx. 2kg) 

• ½ cup/185g Egmont Honey 

• ¼ cup orange juice 

• 1 cinnamon stick 

• 1 thumb-sized piece ginger, thinly sliced 

• 2 oranges, peeled, thinly sliced 

METHOD 

1. Pre-heat the oven to 180°C.  
2. Peel the skin from the ham making sure to keep the fat intact.  
3. Discard the skin and put the ham into an oven-proof dish.  
4. Put the honey, orange juice, cinnamon stick and ginger into a small heavy-bottomed pot. 
5. Bring to the boil then reduce the heat and simmer until it thickens and forms a syrupy glaze. This will take roughly 10 minutes.  
6. Brush this glaze over the ham, then arrange the orange slices on top, overlapping them slightly and securing with toothpicks if required.  
7. Glaze the ham again then roast for 45 minutes, glazing every 15 minutes until the orange slices start to turn brown around the edges.  
8. Remove from the oven, slice and serve.
