- Remove the gammon from the water after the required cooking time and place onto an oven tray to cool slightly, remove the rind leaving the gammon whole then score into the fat.
- Cover with mustard and set to one side.
- In a small pan add the marmalade and brown sugar then place onto the heat and mix together until a sticky glaze has formed.
