This year I baked my ham in the simplest way possible: no boiling like last year, no glaze, no special preparation: nothing. The only thing I did was wrap the whole ham in banana leaves which gave it a wonderful flavour and added the whole cloves before baking. I was surprised at how it came out in the end: there is really something to simplicity in cooking sometimes. Enjoy Trini Christmas ham …take two!

and continue baking to dry up the surface of the ham.
Well, the ham tasted great in two slices of homemade bread, with some chow chow and a bit of pepper sauce this Christmas morning. Now to go look for a Shandy Carib or a Malta to wash it all down. Merry Christmas everyone!

OOOH…yummy! The recipe is very simple. The cloves and banana leaf will add a special taste to the ham. No oil is used and hence this sounds (and of course looks) healthy! simple to do and great to taste!
