Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking dish that can fit the pork belly comfortably.

  2. Place the pork belly on a clean cutting board, skin side up. Score the skin diagonally with a sharp knife, being careful not to cut into the meat. This will help the skin crisp up during cooking.

  3. Rub the sea salt all over the pork belly, ensuring the entire surface is covered. Allow it to sit for about 30 minutes to let the flavors infuse.

  4. In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the pork belly, making sure to get it into the scored skin.

  5. Transfer the pork belly to the prepared baking dish and tuck the lemon slices around the sides. This will add a lovely citrus aroma to the dish as it cooks.

  6. Place the pork belly in the preheated oven and roast for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender. Baste the pork belly with the juices halfway through cooking.

  7. Once the pork belly is cooked to perfection, remove it from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it into thick pieces.

  8. Serve the Salt Yard Pork Belly on a platter, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. This dish pairs beautifully with a side of roasted vegetables or a light salad.
