We selected a Kiwi Champagne ham - this would feed more than 50 people. The bonus is that it makes a great gift and family can take home a large piece each for sandwiches and salads. Order this ham through the deli counter at your supermarket if you can't find it. It never fails to impress.

425 g Apricot halves
4 tbsp Brown sugar
2 tbsp Wholegrain mustard
3 tbsp Orange marmalade
9 kg Champagne ham
1 bunch Cloves

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 160 degC. Move the baking racks to the middle of the oven. Line a large roasting pan with tinfoil.
  2. Place drained apricots, brown sugar, whole seed mustard and orange marmalade in a food processor. Process until smooth and runny enough to use as a baste.
  3. Carefully peel skin off the ham, score in a criss-cross pattern and stud with cloves, then apply baste. Pour baste from above so it drizzles down all over the ham.
  4. Place in oven and bake for 2 hours.

    Note: If your oven runs hot due to the high sugar content in the glaze, the ham can brown quickly. Adjust the temperature if necessary. Remember the ham is cooked - just glaze and heat it.
