100g (½ cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
80ml (⅓ cup) maple syrup
80ml (⅓ cup) honey
1 tbsp dijon mustard
1 (about 8kg) whole leg ham, on the bone
Whole cloves, to stud
METHOD:
1. Stir the sugar, maple syrup, honey and mustard in a bowl until the sugar dissolves.
2.Preheat oven to 170°C. Line a large baking dish with 2 layers of non-stick baking paper. Place an oven shelf in the lowest position.
3. Use a sharp knife to cut around the shank of the ham, about 10cm from the end. Run a knife under the rind around the edge of ham.
Gently lift the rind off in 1 piece by running your fingers between the rind and the fat. Score the fat in a diamond pattern, about 5mm deep. Stud the centres of the diamonds with cloves. Transfer to prepared dish.
4. Brush one-third of the glaze over the ham. Bake, brushing with glaze every 25 minutes, for 1 hour 30 minutes.
