No. 183 Easter Ham

Take a smoked ham, make pockets in it; take ¼ peck cabbage sprouts, 1 bunch celery, chop them up fine. Skin the ham and stuff the pockets with the above, then put the skin on again. The pockets should not be cut till the skin is taken off, because that must be kept whole. Tie up in a bag which fits the ham, let 2½ hours be the time for boiling it; when done, take out of bag, take off the skin, stick in top of the ham 2 dozen cloves. Baste with a little melted sugar and sift some fine breadcrumbs over it; put in oven to get a light brown. Serve it with cabbage sprouts or cauliflower.
