  3. Place the gammon in a roasting tin. Spoon 60ml (4tbsp) of the kumquat brandy-flavoured syrup over the top. Cover and seal with foil. Cook in a preheated oven 180 C, 350 F, gas mark 4, allowing 55 min per kg (25 min per lb) plus 25 min.

  5. Drain off the juices, remove the string and peel the skin from the gammon. Using a large, sharp knife score the fat with cuts to create a diamond pattern.
