Oh enough with the soda already! Honestly, another recipe involving cola? Yes. Really. Cola is actually quite nice to cook with - it's sweet and slightly spicy and the flavor does go very well with meat. This recipe comes from the lovely and entertaining The Cracker Kitchen cookbook by Janis Owens (I've written about it before) and I'm very pleased with it. I made this for Easter (and yes, I really should have posted about it before) and we just ate it plain, with fresh pineapple. It'd go really well with a potato au gratin though!
Coca Cola Baked Ham
(printable recipe)
About 2 kg cooked ham
1 can of Coca Cola
6 tbsp brown sugar
Mix the cola and sugar in a large plastic bag, and let the sugar dissolve. Place the ham in the bag, tie it, and leave it to marinate overnight. Turn the bag a few times to make sure the whole ham is covered.
Bake at 175°C for 45-60 minutes, basting it a few times meanwhile. Leave it to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
