2 small onions, chopped
1 leek, finely chopped
1 ⁵⁄₈ quarts red wine
¹⁄₂ lb mushroom, sliced
2 tablespoons butter
¹⁄₂ cup water
salt
pepper
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons flour

directions

Loosen the skin from the ham and simmer with the onions and the leek for 1 hour in a roasting pan with all but ½ cup of the wine.
Remove ham from roaster.
Cut away and discard tough outer skin.
Brown mushrooms in butter.
Cut a slash in the top of the ham sufficiently large to hold the mushroom mixture, water, salt and pepper.
Skewer the opening to keep the filling in place.
Make a sauce of the 2 tablespoons of butter, 2 tablespoon of flour and the liquid from the roaster.
Stir over a low heat.
Add the reserved ½ cup wine a little at a time and mix well.
Pout over the ham in the roasting pan and bake until tender (about 25 minutes to the pound) in a preheated 375º oven.
Baste at least every ½ hour with juices from the pan.
