Easter Ham or Glazed Ham is a definite crowd pleaser. Especially on a buffet table with vegetable and potato casserole dishes.

INGREDIENTS:

10 pound bone in whole ham with fat cap

1 teaspoon ground pepper

½ teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon ground coriander

½ teaspoon allspice

½ teaspoon ground cloves

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 tablespoons paprika

½ cup brown sugar

1 teaspoon cumin

½ teaspoon salt

¼ cup good Dijon mustard

5 cloves garlic crushed

½ teaspoon freshly grated ginger

1 cup mango chutney

grated zest of one orange and all its juice

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F

Combine all of the ingredients, except the ham, in the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth.

Cut diagonal slits across the fat cap of the ham cross wise to make a checkerboard pattern. Don’t cut into meat, just the fat.

Place the ham on a rack in baking dish fat cap up top and roast for 1 ½ to 2 hours. After the first hour, brush the glaze all over ham. Back in oven for another ½ hour, brush again with glaze. After two hours brush with glaze and test temperature of ham. It should be 140 degrees when done. Enjoy!
