Ham In Coca Cola - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
2 kg mild-cure ham
1 onion, peeled and cut in half
1 (2 liter) bottle Coca-Cola
for the glaze
1 tablespoon black treacle or 1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Preparation
-
Put ham in a pan, add onion and pour over the Coke.
Bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer, put the lid on and cook for around 2 1/2 hours or around one hour per kilo of meat.
Preheat oven to 240 C degrees.
When ham is cooked, take it out of pan and let cool.
Remove skin, leaving a thin layer of fat.
Use a sharp knife to make large diamond shapes in the fat.
Put a clove in each diamond and spread treacle over skin.
Pat mustard and sugar onto the sticky fat.
Bake in a foil-lined pan for around 10 minutes, or until crispy and bubbly.
