Mix the quark or cream cheese with soaked bread until smooth. Toast the walnuts. Add the toasted walnuts and diced ham to the quark mixture and knead into a mass.
Rinse the leg of lamb, pat dry and stuff with the quark mixture. Tie the leg of lamb with kitchen string, season with salt and pepper, and place on a greased baking tray.
