Recipe type: Entrée/Main
Cuisine: American
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 (2 lbs.) Hatfield Uncured Ham
For the glaze
  • ⅓ cup kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce) * See Note
  • 1 tablespoon sambal oelek, or any kind of chili paste
  • 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
For the stir-fried vegetables
  • ½ lb. green beans (about 2½ cups)
  • 1 medium carrot
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons ham glaze
Instructions
For the ham
  1. Heat oven to 325°F.
  2. In a small bowl, mix all glaze ingredients. There will be enough glaze for the ham and the vegetables, with some leftover. ** See Note
  3. Remove ham from packaging. Score it diagonally.
  4. Place ham in a baking dish. Brush generously with the glaze. *** See Note
  5. Place in the oven and bake for 30 - 40 minutes, basting every 10 minutes, until ham is completely warmed through. Remember, the ham is already fully cooked.
  6. Let ham rest for 5 minutes prior to slicing.
For the stir-fired vegetables
  1. Slice onion, carrot, and green beans into julienne strips.
  2. Heat a skillet on medium-high. Add olive oil.
  3. Cook vegetables in the oil until tender and slightly caramelized, about 10 - 15 minutes, stirring often.
  4. Add salt & pepper to taste.
  5. Once vegetables are cooked to desired tenderness, drizzle 2 tablespoons of glaze, stir and cook for another minute. Served with the ham
Notes
* If you can't find kecap manis (Indonesian sweet soy sauce), you can substitute it with a mix of equal ratios of low-sodium soy sauce, molasses, and brown sugar.
** Microwave any leftover glaze for 30 seconds and serve it alongside ham.
*** The instructions on the package recommend that you add ½ inch of water in your baking dish. I assume this is to keep the ham moist. I did not do this, and I didn't find the ham to be dry.
