Serves 4
4 Syns per serving

1.6kg unsmoked gammon joint, visible fat removed
400g fresh cherries, halved and stoned
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
5 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 level tbsp clear honey
½ tsp ground allspice
for the pickled sprouts
250g Brussels sprouts,trimmed and halved
100ml red wine vinegar
1 tsp mixed pink and black
peppercorns
1 garlic clove, thinly sliced
2 bay leaves
2 level tsp soft dark brown sugar
1 tsp yellow mustard seeds
½ tsp dried chilli flakes

Put the gammon in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 1½ hours (or if yours is a different size, cook for 20 minutes per 450g, plus20 minutes).
Once the gammon is simmering, blanch the sprouts in another saucepan of boiling water over a high heat for 3 minutes, then drain, refresh under cold running water and set aside. Put the remaining sprout ingredients plus ½ tsp salt in the same saucepan and heat until bubbling. Remove
from the heat, add the sprouts and toss to coat. Tip the sprouts and the pickling liquid into a non-metallic dish and set aside, then drain them when you’re ready to eat later.
At the same time, put the cherries in a saucepan with the onion, 4 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 1 tbsp honey, half of the allspice and 150ml water. Bring to the boil and cook over a medium-high heat
for about 15 minutes, then set aside to cool a little. Season to taste.
Once the gammon is almost done, preheat your oven to 200°C/ fan 180°C/gas 6. (Now your gammon is cooked, you can call it a ham!) Drain the ham, remove any string and put it in a non-stick roasting tin. Sprinkle with the rest of the allspice and drizzle over the remaining vinegar and honey. Loosely cover with foil and roast for 45 minutes. Slice and serve with the cherry sauce, pickled sprouts and your favourite potatoes
