1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes (about 2)
1 small clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons orange marmalade
1/2 cup shredded Gruyere cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
Three 7- to 8-ounce ham steaks, halved crosswise
2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
3 slices canned pineapple in heavy syrup, plus 1 teaspoon of the syrup
3 maraschino cherries, halved (optional)
6 whole cloves
1 hard-boiled egg
4 lemon wedges
Mustard, for serving
Method
Special equipment: 2 sheet pans (18 by 13 inches each) and a mandoline or vegetable slicer
Position the oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven and
preheat to 425 degrees F.
Make the scones. Whisk the flour, 1 tablespoon of the parmesan, the baking
powder, 1/4 teaspoon of the thyme, 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon
black pepper together in a large bowl. Add 3/4 cup of the cream and stir with
a wooden spoon until the dough just comes together. Gather the dough into a ball, transfer it to a floured surface and pat into a 1-inch-thick square. Cut into 4 equal-sized square biscuits, reshaping if necessary, and transfer to a plate to chill.
Cut the carrots into 1 1/2-inch chunks on the bias, halving any larger pieces to keep them all roughly the same size.
Line one sheet pan with parchment paper and spread the carrots on half. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a small bowl in the microwave. Drizzle the carrots with the butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt and toss to coat. On the other side of the tray, toss the asparagus with 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and some pepper and spread it evenly. Bake on the bottom rack until the vegetables are just beginning to become tender, 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch-thick rounds with a mandoline or a vegetable slicer and place in a medium skillet with a lid. Stir the remaining 1 cup heavy cream, the garlic, the remaining 1/4 teaspoon chopped thyme, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a pinch of pepper together in a measuring cup or bowl and pour over the potatoes. Bring to a boil over medium heat, cover the pan, and lower the heat to maintain a simmer. Cook, stirring only occasionally, until the potatoes are tender when pierced with the tip of a paring knife and the cream has thickened, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside, covered.
Remove the carrots from the oven and spoon the marmalade over them, stirring until completely coated. Turn the asparagus spears and return the baking sheet to the oven.
Butter 1/3 of the clean sheet pan. Spoon half the potato slices into an even, overlapping layer on the buttered area and sprinkle evenly with 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan. Top with the remaining potato slices, spoon any remaining cream over, and sprinkle with the Gruyere and remaining tablespoon of Parmesan.
Arrange the ham slices in a single overlapping layer down the center of the sheet pan, leaving an empty space for the biscuits. Mix the brown sugar and pineapple syrup together in a small bowl and heat in the microwave for 30 second increments, stirring in between until the sugar has melted. Spoon the glaze onto the ham slices and spread it with the back of a spoon to cover. Cut the pineapple rings in half and lay a piece on top of each ham slice. If using, place a maraschino cherry half in the center of each pineapple slice and pin it down with a clove. If not, pin the pineapple to the ham with the clove.
Evenly space the chilled biscuits on the tray and brush the tops with cream. Place the tray on the higher rack of the oven. Cook both trays until the potatoes are brown and crusty on top, the carrots are glazed and fully cooked, the asparagus is tender and lightly browned, the scones are golden, and the ham and pineapple are warmed through, about 20 minutes.
To serve: Stir the carrots and grate the hard-boiled egg over the asparagus. Divide evenly among 4 plates. Serve with lemon wedges and mustard on the side.

Black Cherry Marinade
Ingredients
1/2 cup black cherry preserves or fruit spread
2 tbsp. Balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tbsp. strong brewed coffee
1/8 tsp. salt
Zest of 1/2 lime along with the juice
Method
1. Over medium low heat, combine all the ingredients until the preserves are well
incorporated. Set aside and let cool.
2. In a plastic bag, place 1-2 lbs. of meat (pork, chicken, beef), and then pour the cooled marinade in the bag. Seal the bag, and gently massage, shake the bag, until all the meat is coated with the marinade. (Note, the marinade works best, with boneless cuts of meat and should not be used with ground meat). Place the sealed bag in the refrigerator for at least 2 but no more than 6 hours.
3. Remove the bag of meat from the refrigerator at least 20 minutes before preparing to allow it to come to room temperature.
4. Prepare the meat, as you normally would, grilling, baking or pan sautéing. The remaining marinade can be added to cover the meat during the cooking process. Discard any unused marinade.
Tips:
1. The above recipe can also be used as a dipping sauce just serve it alongside cooked meats. Do not use leftover marinade as a dipping sauce due to it having touched uncooked meat.
2. Coat large pieces of meat such a whole loins, rounds, roasts, or bone in meats such as pork chops, or chicken during the cooking. Just coat the cut of meat with glaze the last 20 minutes of roasting/baking or last 5 minutes of grilling/broiling.
3. Consider using this recipe as a glaze for your next holiday ham. Just double the recipe, and omit the lime zest and juice. Replace them with ¼ tsp. of ground nutmeg.
4. Try this recipe as the topping of on your Grandma’s favorite meatloaf recipe instead of the standard tomato sauce.
