- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat butter in large, heavy roasting pan over medium heat. When warm, add in carrots and onions and saute/fry, stirring, till softened, about 3 min. Place ham, fat-side up, on top of vegetables. Add in 3 c. wine, parsley, bay leaves, peppercorns, thyme and cloves to pan. Bring to a simmer. Remove from stovetop.
- Cover pan; transfer to oven. Bake till quite tender when pierced with knife, about 1 1/2 hrs or possibly longer, basting every 20 min with pan juices. Remove pan from oven; raise temperature to 450 degrees.
- Combine jelly and mustard in small saucepan; cook over low heat, stirring, till jelly is dissolved. Brush ham with mustard mix and return to oven; bake uncovered for 15 min. Remove pan from oven. Remove ham from pan; tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let cold for 20 min while making sauce.
- Throw away bay leaves and parsley. Puree remaining vegetables and any juices in pan in food processor, blender or possibly food mill. Return to roasting pan; place pan on stovetop over high heat.
