Preparation time:
Cooking time: 3-4 hrs
Level: Intermediate
Ingredients:
1 ham
whole cloves
banana leaves
Directions:
Wash the ham and pat dry with paper towels.
Singe a banana leaf and cut it to fit a large baking dish. Place the ham in the dish skin side down and add the whole cloves. Wrap with the remaining banana leaves and bake at 350° F for 2 1/2 - 3 hours, depending on the size of the ham, or until thoroughly cooked.
Note: The general rule for baking ham is 25 minutes per Kilogram.
While baking, test the meat by sticking a knife into it. If after sticking the meat, liquid comes out of it, then more baking is required. After 2 hours of baking, remove the banana leaves
and continue baking to dry up the surface of the ham.
Place on a rack to cool.
