By Alqualonde

Check out the recipe, which should take you clear through your Christmas ham and onto your Easter ham.

Ingredients

• 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice
• 1/4 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1/8 teaspoon allspice
• 1/16 teaspoon ground cloves
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• A few grinds of black pepper
• 1 tablespoon corn starch, dissolved in 2 tablespoons water

Preparation

Step 1

Add all ingredients to a saucepan and stir to combine. Heat on medium, stirring occasionally, until it boils and thickens. Boil 1 minute and remove from heat.
Spoon warm sauce over and alongside ham slices. This sauce tastes even better if you make it a day ahead and keep it refrigerated. Remove and rewarm or serve at room temperature if you like.
Serves 4-6.
