Instructions
Calculate the cooking time by allowing 30 minutes for each 500g. Cover the gammon with cold water, bring to the boil and simmer for half the cooking time.
Combine the rest of the ingredients in a small saucepan and heat, stirring until thickened.
Drain the water from the gammon and remove the skin and most of the fat before scoring and glazing the gammon with the marmalade mixture.
Roast in the oven at 180C/350F for the remaining time but increase the temperature to 200C/400F for the last 15-20 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool before refrigerating and slicing.
