Mango-chilli glaze

• 1 large mango (about 600g),peeled and chopped
• 1 fresh red cayenne chilli,chopped
• ½ tsp chilli powder
• ½ cup white wine or water
• 2 tbsp dark rum
• 1 tbsp honey or to taste

METHOD

1. Preheat oven to 160C fan-forced (180C conventional).
2. Put glaze ingredients in a jug and blitz with a hand-held blender until smooth. Set aside.
3. Remove the ham skin and score the surface of the ham fat into a diamond pattern using a small knife. Do not cut into the meat. Stud a clove into the middle of each diamond. Brush the mango-chilli glaze generously over the ham. Place ham in a roasting dish and pour over any remaining glaze.
4. Roast ham on lowest shelf of oven for about 1½ hours,basting occasionally with the glaze in the roasting dish until the glaze is lightly caramelised. Using a meat thermometer,test that the internal temperature has reached 65C.
5. When the ham has warmed through,remove from the oven and rest for 15 minutes before carving and serving hot. Or allow to come back to room temperature. Serve with tomato and mango sambal.
