Roast Pork Belly Recipe

There is first for many in cooking aspect this year. Pork belly sells on cheap today about 5xx dinar (RM25) for 1kg. First thought was going for braised pork , then i saw it had the bony parts as well. So here goes partial of the purchase to roasting pioneering trip -- in the oven it goes. 

As usual google around and quick search in IG for reference.

INGREDIENTS

Little bit drop oil - rub on skin side

Sprinkle generous amount salt on skin

Marinate mix for meat - missing many items like 5 spice powder, star anise for more traditional chinese style , so jebiga screw it just go basic.

Pork belly 0.5kg i think

Some recipe calls for blanching the pork first. I skipped it, just go straight patting the pork dry with paper towels. Slicing the skin provide more area to crunch the skin i think, didn't do it though since my meat is already cut up already.



Place it on the wire rack. Rub the meat spice mixture on bottom side. Just few drop oil rub on skin, then spinkle generous amuont of salt on skin. Had to tie up the meat slabs since its already sliced thin when bought.

Pre-heat the oven to 200°C. First go for about 30 minutes. Lots of oil/lard dripping for pork belly. Next roast at 15 minutes interval, keep watching the skin. 2 rounds and its ready, total of 1 hours roasting at 200C.

Remove the roast from the oven. Chop up and serve with whatever you like this crunchy goodness.
