1 lb. ground ham
1 lb. lean sausage, room temperature
2 c. soft bread crumbs
2 eggs
1 c. sour cream
1/3 c. chopped onion
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. curry powder
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. powdered mustard
1/8 tbsp. grated nutmeg
1/8 tsp. paprika

BASTING SAUCE:

1 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. water
1/2 c. cider vinegar
1/4 tsp. black pepper

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In large mixer bowl, lightly but thoroughly combine the meats and crumbs. Use your hands if necessary. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs and add the sour cream, onion, lemon juice and spices; mix well. Pour over the meat mixture and blend. Form mixture into a loaf and place in an oiled 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake uncovered for 1 hour.

Meanwhile, prepare basting sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar with remaining ingredients and bring to a boil. When the ham loaf has baked for 45 minutes, remove from oven and drain off excess fat. Pour sauce over the loaf and continue baking another 15 minutes, basting now and then with the pan juices.
