Knead the cooked ham into one piece, the grated cheese into another, and the Italian herbs into another. Shape each piece into a long roll, then braid it and place it on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Let the plait rest for 30 minutes. Then bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for 40 minutes.
