Slow Cooked Cola Ham

Chef: Daniel Lambert

Ingredients

1 family-sized ham straight from the local butcher or supermarket

For the Glaze:

500ml Coca Cola

2 tsp whole grain Mustard

2 Star Anis

Sprig of Rosemary

6 cloves

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce


Method:

For the brine:

Cover the ham in water until submerged

For every 2 litres of water used add:

1 cinnamon stick

2 star anis

2 tsp Pink Peppercorns

1 bay leaf


For the ham and glaze:

1) Start by brining the ham in the brine mixture above, bring it to a simmer and strain

2) For the glaze, mix all ingredients in a frying pan or pot and reduce until sticky, I like to roast off my spices before using them

3) Remove the ham from the strainer and place into a slow cooker on low heat for 6 hours

4) Take out the ham, re glaze it with the juices left over and roast the ham in a preheated oven at 180C for 5 mins.

Slice & Enjoy !
