- Add the juice from the canned pineapple and the hoisin sauce and bring to a boil. Pour hot liquid over top of the ham and into the roasting pan or pot.
- Place in oven and roast, basting every 10-15 minutes until ham is warm all the way through and nicely browned. Approx 45 minutes.
- Serve the ham on a platter or plated and garnish with sauce, cilantro and cashews.

Variations
- Heat is a welcome addition to this sauce. So if you like spicy go ahead and add 1 teaspoon (mild) – 1 tablespoon (spicy) of chopped fresh jalepeno pepper (seeds and white “viens” removed) in with the onions while browning.
- Red pepper makes a great addition to this sauce as well.
