Steps

  • Simmer ham hocks with vegetables, peppercorns, salt, and herbs in water for two hours.
  • Strain the cooking liquid and reserve 250ml.
  • Steam spring onions for five minutes until tender and allow to cool.
  • Soak gelatine leaves in cold water for five minutes until pliable.
  • Stir soaked gelatine into the simmering reserved cooking liquor until dissolved.
  • Shed ham from bones, cut into 2.5cm slices, and place half in a lined terrine mould.
  • Layer spring onions over the ham and top with the remaining ham slices.
  • Pour the gelatine mixture over the ham and tap the mould to remove air.
  • Cover the terrine, weigh it down with tins, and refrigerate for two hours.
  • Boil vinegar and sugar together then remove from heat.
  • Stir fry mustard seeds and chilli flakes in olive oil for one minute.
  • Fry marrow rounds for 3 minutes until softened and season to taste.
  • Combine marrow with the vinegar mixture and chill in the fridge.
  • Slice the terrine and serve with a spoonful of drained marrow.
