Ingredients:  
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1 cup brown sugar
1 tbsp Chinese five-spice powder
2 tbsp butter, softened
1 5-lb good quality cooked ham
2 medium onions, chopped

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350º. In a small bowl, mix the pecans, sugar, and five-spice powder with the butter until you have a fine, crumbly mixture. Rub generously over the ham, patting the crust with your hands.

Scatter the onions in the bottom of a heavy roasting pan and add about 2 cups water. Place the ham on the bed of onions. Roast in the oven for about 2 hours, checking to make sure there's still liquid in the pan. As the water evaporates, add a bit more. The ham is done when a nice glaze forms on the outside.

The pecan mixture and the water in the pan will create their own sauce to pour over the ham after you have sliced it. If the sauce seems too thin, just pour into a saucepan and reduce it.
