SPICED POMEGRANATE AND ORANGE GLAZED HAM
This recipe calls for a whole leg of ham, with the bone in, that has been pre-cured and pre-cooked. If you can't buy a pre-cooked ham, ask your local butcher for a cured leg and follow their cooking instructions before glazing.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 180°C (350°F). Place the cinnamon, star-anise, juice, sugar, pomegranate molasses and honey in a medium saucepan over medium heat and bring to the boil, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Cook for 4-6 minutes or until syrupy.
- Lightly grease a large wire rack over a roasting pan lined with aluminum foil. Use a sharp knife to score the skin around the sides and hock of the ham, before using your fingers to gently remove the rind. Trim any excess fat. Wrap the ham hock in non-stick baking paper then aluminum foil. Place the ham on the rack and brush with the glaze. Arrange the orange slices over the ham, overlapping slightly. Carefully brush with the glaze and roast the ham for 40 minutes, brushing with glaze halfway. Increase the oven temperature to 200°C (400°F). Brush the ham with the glaze and roast for a further 5 minutes or until golden and caramelized.
- Serve the ham with the remaining glaze.

Steps:
- Score fat on ham in a 3/4-inchwide diamond pattern. Finely grind fennel, coriander, and peppercorns in a spice mill or clean coffee grinder. Transfer to a bowl; stir in zests and salt. Rub mixture over ham, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 1 to 3 days.
- Unwrap ham; let stand at room temperature 1 to 2 hours. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine 2 cups water, grapefruit wedges, and lime halves in a roasting pan. Set ham on a wire rack in pan. Bake, basting every hour, and covering with parchment-lined foil after 1 hour, until a thermometer inserted into bottom part (avoiding bone) reads 140 degrees, about 4 hours, 30 minutes (about 20 minutes per pound). Remove from oven; let rest 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, increase heat to 400 degrees. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss assorted cut citrus with oil and sprinkle generously with sugar. Roast, turning once, until browned, about 40 minutes.
- While meat is resting, cook honey, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring, until deep golden, about 8 minutes. Remove from heat; slowly stir in citrus juices. Bring to a boil; cook until reduced to 1 cup, about 3 minutes. Brush 3 tablespoons glaze over ham.
- Serve ham with roasted citrus, pomegranate, fennel crowns, and remaining glaze.
POMEGRANATE-GLAZED HAM WITH JAMMY CIPOLLINIS
Pomegranate molasses, honey, Dijon mustard, and allspice create an irresistible glaze for a holiday-party classic: a whole ham. The meat is roasted with a pile of cipollini onions, which caramelize and soak up all the delicious drippings, then served with mini pickle biscuits for making sandwiches.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with a rack in lower third. Prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Trim 1/4 inch off root end of each onion, then cook onions in pot until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, slip off skins, and cut into quarters. (Quartered onions can be refrigerated up to 2 days.)
- Stir together molasses, brown sugar, honey, mustard, allspice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Place ham in a large roasting pan, cut-side down; baste generously with glaze. Scatter onions around ham and pour in 1/2 cup water.
- Cover ham with parchment-lined foil; roast until a thermometer inserted into thickest part (not touching bone) reads 125 degrees, 1 hour to 1 hour, 15 minutes. Uncover, baste with more glaze, and return to oven. Increase heat to 400 degrees and roast, basting and rotating pan once, until outside is crisp, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer to a serving platter; tent with foil.
- Return roasting pan with onions to oven; roast until sauce has thickened slightly and onions are caramelized, 15 to 20 minutes more. Transfer onions and pan drippings to a serving vessel; skim fat from top. Serve ham with biscuits, mustard, onions, apples, and parsley.
