GLAZED PINEAPPLE HAM

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Shingle the ham slices in 2 rows on a ceramic baking dish. Top each with a pineapple slice, then place a cherry in the middle of each pineapple ring. Cover with foil and bake for 15 minutes.
• Whisk together the brown sugar, apple juice and mustard. Remove the ham from the oven, uncover and drizzle with the glaze. Continue to bake, glazing in 5-minute intervals, for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Serve in the baking dish.

PINEAPPLE BROWN SUGAR-GLAZED BONELESS HAM

Steps:

• Let the ham sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the ham on a cutting board. Using a sharp paring knife, score the top and sides in a diagonal crosshatch pattern about 1/4 inch deep. Push the cloves into the ham if using, placing them at the intersections of the cuts. Put the ham, scored side-up, on a rack set in a roasting pan.
• Drain the pineapple rings, reserving the juice. Arrange the sliced pineapple all over the ham, securing with toothpicks. Add a maraschino cherry to the center of each pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
• Pour 1/4 inch water into the bottom of the pan and tent the ham loosely with foil. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the ham registers 130 degrees F, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, combine the honey, brown sugar and reserved pineapple juice in a large saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, syrupy and reduced to about 3 cups, 25 to 30 minutes. Set aside.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F.
• Uncover the ham and carefully brush a third of the glaze all over. If the water in the roasting pan has evaporated, add more. Bake the ham for 15 minutes more. Brush with another third of the glaze and bake for 15 minutes more. Brush the remaining glaze over the ham and cook until the glaze is shiny and the skin is dark golden brown and crispy, about 15 minutes more. Let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.

HAM AND PINEAPPLE DINNER

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Saute the ham, onions and pineapple chunks in the butter for about 5 minutes.
• In a separate medium bowl, combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, brown sugar, mustard and cornstarch. Stir this together well and pour over the ham mixture in the skillet. Stir well and allow to heat through and thicken, about 5 minutes.

HAM WITH PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (160 degrees C).
• Place ham in a roasting pan. Score the rind of the ham with a diamond pattern. Press a clove into the center of each diamond. Drain the juice from the pineapple rings into a medium bowl, and stir in the brown sugar and lemon-lime soda. Coat the ham with this mixture. Arrange the pineapple rings over the outside of the ham. Place a maraschino cherry in the center of each pineapple ring, and secure with a toothpick.
• Bake uncovered for 4 to 5 hours, basting frequently with the juices, until the internal temperature of the ham is 160 degrees F (72 degrees C). Be sure the meat thermometer is not touching the bone. Remove toothpicks before serving.

HAM & PINEAPPLE SCROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C and line a baking tray with non-stick baking paper.
• Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl and rub the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs; stir in the milk with a flat-bladed knife until the mixture comes together.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and knead gently.
• Divide the dough in half and roll out each portion to a 15cm x 30cm rectangle.
• Spread each portion with pasta sauce, sprinkle with ham, pineapple and cheese and roll up from the longer side to enclose the filling.
• Trim the ends if necessary.
• Cut into 2cm wide pieces with a lightly floured serrated-edge knife and place the scrolls onto a lightly greased tray, allowing room for them spreading.
• Bake for 18-20 minutes or until puffed and golden.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

HAM ROLLS WITH SPICY PINEAPPLE SAUCE

Steps:

• For the spicy pineapple sauce: Add the pineapple chunks, Thai bird chile, garlic, lime juice, brown sugar, fish sauce and ginger to a blender. Blend until combined. Transfer the mixture to a pot. Heat the mixture over medium heat. Combine the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl and mix until the cornstarch is dissolved. Add to the hot pineapple mixture and stir to combine. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
• For the ham rolls: Cut the ham into 10 slices, then cut each slice into 4 matchsticks. Add the ham to a nonstick pan over medium heat and fry until golden brown. Set aside and let cool.
• Cook the vermicelli rice noodles according to the package. Rinse with cold water. Toss with 1/4 cup pineapple sauce. Set aside.
• Line a plate with a damp paper towel or parchment paper. Wet a few paper towel sheets and wring out the water. Have them standing by to cover your finished rolls. Fill a large shallow bowl with warm water. Dunk one rice wrapper in the shallow bowl of water for about 5 seconds to soften. Move to your work surface. Add 1 leaf of butter lettuce, torn in half, in the center, and top with 4 pieces of the ham, a small pile of the vermicelli noodles, red cabbage, cilantro leaves and mint leaves. Gently pull the bottom of the wrapper and roll over the filling, using your hands to tuck the filling in as you roll. Fold in each side and continue to roll tightly. Add the roll to your damp paper towel-lined plate. Cover the roll with a damp paper towel. Continue rolling until you have 10 rolls, covering with damp paper towels and keeping them separated (if the rolls touch, the wrappers will tear).
• To serve, cut each roll in half on an angle and serve with the spicy pineapple sauce.

ISLAND-STYLE HAM, PINEAPPLE EGG & CHIPS

Steps:

• Put the ham in a snug-fitting pan, pour over the ginger beer and add the cloves, peppercorns and bay. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover with a lid and cook for 1 hr 15 mins. Leave the ham until cool enough to handle, then use a knife to remove the rind, leaving a layer of fat on the ham.
• Put the chips in a pan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Cook for 2 mins, then drain and leave to steam-dry in the colander. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Tip the chips onto your largest baking tray, toss with the oil, a pinch of Caribbean spice mix and some salt. Spread the chips out to a single layer, or if your tray is small, use two to make sure your chips have plenty of space around them so they get nice and crispy. Bake for 40 mins, turning them halfway through. Meanwhile, put the ham in a small baking dish lined with foil. Mix 2 tbsp Caribbean spice mix, the treacle and lime juice and paint all over the ham. Put in the oven alongside the chips for the final 20 mins of cooking.
• Cut the top and bottom off the pineapple, stand it upright on a chopping board and cut away all the peel from the sides too. Cut it in half through the core, then into long, thin wedges - you should get about 12. Cut out the woody core from each piece, brush with some oil and sprinkle with a little Caribbean spice mix.
• Heat a griddle pan and a frying pan with the remaining oil. Cook the pineapple in the griddle pan for 2-3 mins each side until charred. Crack the eggs into the hot oil in the frying pan and scatter with the sliced chilli, if using, and cook the eggs to your liking.
• Remove the ham and chips from the oven. Thickly slice the ham and serve it with the chips, eggs and pineapple.

GRILLED HAM, PINEAPPLE AND SWISS SANDWICH

Steps:

• Prepare a large skillet or cast-iron skillet.
• Place two slices of bread on a work surface.
• Cover/sprinkle each of the two slices with one portion of cheese, then one slice of ham, then one portion of pineapple.
• Finish with the second portion of cheese.
• Top each sandwich with a slice of bread.
• Melt butter in a hot skillet.
• Add the two sandwiches to the skillet; cook until cheese is beginning to melt and the undersides are golden.
• Butter the tops of the sandwiches, using a spatula carefully turn them over.
• Cook until the cheese is fully melted and the undersides are golden.
• Let stand for about 2 minutes before slicing.
