Directions

  1. Step 1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Place the ham in a roasting tin and score the fat in a neat diamond pattern.

  1. Step 2 In a small pan, warm the cherry & amaretto jam, port, mustard and cloves until slightly thickened and glossy. Brush half over the ham, reserving the rest. Roast for 30–45 minutes, basting every15 minutes, until sticky, golden and caramelised. Rest.

  1. Step 3 For the wreath, join the two puff pastry sheets on the short side to make a long rectangle. Spread with fig chutney, top with sliced ham, then scatter over cheese. Roll up along the long edge, join the ends to form a wreath, then cut slits around to let steam escape and fan the pastry. Brush with beaten egg and sprinkle with sea salt.

  1. Step 4 Bake at 190°C for 20 minutes, brush again with egg, then bake for another 20 minutes, loosely covering with parchment if needed.

  1. Step 5 Cool slightly, transfer to a platter, then thinly slice the glazed ham and arrange inside the wreath, with the rest piled in the centre. Garnish with rosemary sprigs and crumbled sablés.
