I've never made it, but her recipes rarely fail.
Ingredients:
2 kg mild-cure ham
1 onion, peeled and cut in half
1 (2 liter) bottle coca-cola
1 tablespoon black treacle or 1 tablespoon molasses
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 tablespoons brown sugar
Directions:
1. Put ham in a pan, add onion and pour over the Coke.
2. 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.
3. Preheat oven to 240 C degrees.
4. When ham is cooked, take it out of pan and let cool.
5. Remove skin, leaving a thin layer of fat.
6. Use a sharp knife to make large diamond shapes in the fat.
7. Put a clove in each diamond and spread treacle over skin.
8. Pat mustard and sugar onto the sticky fat.
9. Bake in a foil-lined pan for around 10 minutes, or until crispy and bubbly.
