Heat the oven to 160°C (140° fan) 325°F gas 3.

Pour water in the bottom of a large roasting tin to come up to about 5 cm|2" in the tin. Place the ham on a trivet in the tin, then cover the tin tightly with a double layer of foil. Cook for 30 minutes per 450g|1lb.

For the pineapple: heat the grill.
