Instructions

1. Prepare the ham by scoring the surface with a sharp knife. Stud the ham with the cloves spaced apart evenly. Line a baking tray with tinfoil to avoid unnecessary mess.
2. For the glaze simply mix all the remaining ingredients together and warm up in a small pot.
3. Glaze the ham liberally and bake in a pre-heated oven @ 165˚C for 1hr 15mins basting every 10mins with the remaining warm glaze.
4. For the last 5 minutes of baking turn on the grill & allow the glaze to colour evenly. Remove from the oven, allow to rest for 5 minutes & serve.
5. To make the parsley sauce – simply heat up the milk in the microwave to just before boiling point. In a small saucepan melt the butter, add the flour and allow to cook for 1-2 minutes over a low heat. Gradually add the hot milk whisking continuously until it reaches a nice sauce consistency. Crumble in the stock cube and season with salt & freshly ground pepper to taste. Keep the sauce warm and just before serving add the freshly chopped flat parsley.
