"Since I moved to Australia there are dishes that I’ve mastered - and the Christmas glazed ham is one of those. This version is one of my favourite, I also love it because with the leftovers you can have during the festivities as a sandwich or in a salad or as main itself."
Davide brings a modern twist to a festive classic with this Grapefruit & Gin Glazed Christmas Ham by combining the warm, comforting notes of glazed ham with bright citrus and a cheeky splash of gin. Think golden, sticky crust meets juicy, tender pork; this is a ham that steals the spotlight.
This dish is ideal as the centrepiece of your Christmas lunch, or any time you want a show-stopping roast with real character.
Made with ❤️ by Davide
Preparation Instructions
Step 1 - Defrost ham and oranges in fridge 2 days prior to cooking
Step 2 - Preheat oven to 180°C and remove ham from packaging and place on a wire rack inside a deep oven tray.
Step 3 - Pour 3 cups of water into the bottom of the tray, roast for 45 minutes whilst basting the ham with the citrus glaze every 15 minutes. Cut oranges into 3mm slices.
Step 4 - Arrange slices of blood orange (supplied) on top of the ham, securing with toothpicks.
Step 5 - Continue to roast a further 30-40 minutes basting every 10 minutes until golden and caramelised.
Step 6 - Transfer to a serving plate and brush with left over glaze, remove toothpicks and carve.
Please be aware that this is a guide only. All ovens work slightly differently and this should be taken into consideration.
Ingredients & Allergens
Ham, ruby grapefruit juice, blood orange marmalade, brown sugar, honey, lemon, lime, allspice, gin.

It’s the perfect centrepiece for your Christmas lunch or dinner, pairing beautifully with sides like Lou’s Maple Roast Pumpkin with Caramelised Walnuts & Feta, Gavin’s Duck Fat Roasted Potatoes, or Davide’s Brussels Sprout Gratin with Macadamia Crumbs.
