Instructions
Pre-heat the oven to 160°c.
Place the gammon in a large roasting tray and add the carrots, red onions, apples, apple juice and water to the roasting tray and cover with foil/lid.
Place in the oven and roast for 20 minutes per 500g. A 2kg boneless gammon will need 1 hour 20 minutes.
When the gammon is cooked, remove from the oven and turn the heat up to 200°c.
In a small saucepan, combine all the glaze ingredients and allow to come to the boil. Cook until the sugar has dissolved.
Cut the skin off the gammon and cut a diamond pattern into the fat. At this stage you can press cloves into each diamond if desired.
Pour the glaze over the gammon and place back in the oven to cook.
Allow the glaze to get sticky but check on it regularly as it can burn quickly.
When the glaze is sticky and dark, remove from the oven.
Slice and serve the gammon warm or allow to cool before serving.
