Ingredients:
1 half-smoked ham shank (about 3kg)
240g tinned, crushed, pineapple, drained
80ml orange marmalade
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
generous pinch of ground allspice
45g flaked coconut
Method:
Arrange the ham, fat side up, on a rack in a roasting pan. Transfer to an oven pre-heated to 160°C and roast, uncovered, for about 75 minutes (25 minutes per 500g).
Meanwhile, combine the pineapple, orange marmalade, lemon juice, cinnamon and allspice in a small saucepan and heat slowly for about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally. By the end the ingredients should have combined and be easily spreadable. Remove from the heat then stir-in the coconut. Spread the glaze over the ham during the final 20 minutes of the cooking time. Allow to rest, covered with foil, for 15 minutes before carving.
