Make a few small cuts on the Ham. Rub the Ham well with the salt, vinegar, chillie powder, turmeric and pepper. Pierce the Ham with the a few cloves if desired.
 Place the ham in a suitable pan together with all the above ingredients and a little water and cook first on medium heat then on low heat till the ham is cooked and all the water dries up.
