Step 1

Stir jam and sherry in a pan over a medium heat until it forms a sticky spread.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 180C.

Step 3

Prepare ham by lifting off skin but leaving fat. Score fat into diamonds 2.5cm deep (to get the glaze flavour into the meat).

Step 4

Mix cinnamon with star anise and rub into the fat.

Step 5

Spread two-thirds of apricot glaze over ham (keep the rest for basting).

Step 6

Press brown sugar over the top, ensuring sugar gets into score marks.

Step 7

Put ham in a roasting tin, add 2cm water and cook for 1–1½ hours, basting with remaining glaze from time to time. Check it every 20 minutes to avoid burning.
