I bought a butt shank ham and cut most all of the fat off. Put ham in a pan, add onion and pour over the Coke. When ham is cooked, take it out of pan and let cool.
To get started with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have ham in coke using 8 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you cook that.
The ingredients needed to make Ham in coke:
- Get 2 kg gammon, mild cure
- Take 1 onion, peeled and halved
- Get 2 litres cola
- Get [For the glaze]
- Prepare 1 handful Cloves
- Prepare 1 tbsp golden syrup
- Prepare 2 tsp English mustard powder
- Prepare 2 tbsp demerara sugar
Baste the ham with the mixture and return it to the oven. I'm using a fully cooked, bone in, butt ham portion for this particular recipe. You could use a whole ham or a ham shank as well. Many people have been talking about this recipe.
Steps to make Ham in coke:
- Put the gammon in a pan, skin side down if it fits like, add the onion then pour over the cola.
- Bring to the boil, reduce to a good simmer, put the lid on, though not tightly, and cook for 1 hour a kilo. If gammon is straight from fridge add 15mins to cooking time.
- Preheat oven to 240°C/gas 9
- Take the ham out of the pan and let the ham cool a little for ease of handling. (You can let it cool completely then finish off the cooking at some later stage if you want).
- Remove skin, leaving a thin layer of fat. Score the fat with a sharp knife to make fairly large diamond shapes, and stud each diamond with a clove. Then carefully spread the golden syrup over the fat. Then gently pat the mustard and sugar onto the sticky fat.
- Cook for approximately 10 minutes or till the glaze is dark and bubbly. If you left the ham after the simmering, cook for 30-40 minutes at 180°C instead
