Preparation

Wash and dry the leg well, then pierce it on all sides with a large fork. Place it inside a container.

Blend the garlic, onion, salt, pepper and 1 cup of cider until a homogeneous mixture is obtained. Pour on the leg, making sure to soaked it completely. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.

Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).

Remove the leg from the refrigerator and place it inside a baking dish or baking sheet. Reserve the marinade. Insert almonds and raisins in the leg and inject it with the remaining cider.

Spread the whole leg with the butter, place the pineapple slices on top, cover with aluminum foil and bake for 5 to 6 hours.

While the leg is cooking, mix the marinade with the pineapple syrup and use it to baste the leg several times while baking. Remove the foil during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow the leg to brown.

Let it rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
