Onions peel and halve. Clean, wash and roughly cut the carrots into pieces. Heat 3-4 litres of water, carrots, onions, bay leaf, 4 cloves and peppercorns in a large pot. Put ham into it and simmer covered at medium heat for about 2 1/2 hours. Mix orange marmalade, sugar, orange juice, cinnamon and cloves. Lift the cooked ham out of the stock, if necessary let it cool down a little. Remove the rind with a knife. Place the ham on a fat pan or in a roasting pan. Spread with half of the orange and spice mixture. Pour approx. 200 ml cooking stock and place cinnamon sticks, star anise and 5 cloves in the stock. Bake in the preheated oven (electric cooker: 200 °C/ convection oven: 175 °C/ gas: level 3) for 20-30 minutes until crispy. After about 10 minutes, brush with the remaining spice mixture. Remove roast from the oven and cut into slices. Arrange on a deep plate with some stock and the spices. Garnish with orange slices. Tastes hot or cold
