I cooked my first ever ham back in the spring for my Royal Wedding Garden Party and since then I have been dying to cook another. It's a bit excessive to cook a whole ham for just the two of us but Christmas is the season of excess so it'a perfect excuse! I use Nigella's ham in coca-cola recipe and it's just fantastic (I'm not going to retype the original recipe but you can get it from here:
http://www.nigella.com/recipes/view/ham-in-coca-cola-171).
Since I am a messy cook I find it safest to apply the glaze using gloves, it's a bit
CSI:Ham but definitely cuts down on the cleaning up afterwards! I had some for lunch as a solo treat and now it sits pleasingly in the fridge ready to go at a moment's notice.
Definitely the best Christmas present I could make myself!
