Classic Swedish Christmas Ham with Mustard Glaze

Method

1. 1Preheat the oven to 225°C. Trim away the thick rind from the pre-cooked ham, leaving a thin, even layer of fat intact.
2. 2In a small bowl, whisk together the egg, mustard, dijon mustard, and sugar until thoroughly combined and smooth.
3. 3Brush the mustard mixture evenly over the top and sides of the ham fat.
4. 4Generously scatter breadcrumbs over the mustard glaze, pressing lightly to adhere, and dot decoratively with whole cloves if desired.
5. 5Bake in the upper part of the oven for 12 to 15 minutes until the breadcrumb crust is deep golden brown and bubbling. Let cool before carving into thin slices.
