Tasty Roasted Ham

2kg (4 1/2 lb) shoulder or other ham
1/3 cup Australian mustard or other prepared mustard
1/3 cup maple syrup
1 heaped tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon onion powder

Preheat oven to 170ºC (325ºF). Rinse the ham and pat dry with paper towels. Place ham in large roasting pan. In a small bowl, mix together glaze ingredients. Coat the ham with the glaze using a spoon or brush.
Roast the ham uncovered for 2 - 2 1/2 hours in oven or until tender through. Recoat the ham with the glaze, then allow the ham to roast for about 15 minutes before carving to keep it from drying out.
