Is there anything better than honey glazed tender pork belly with caramelised onions, homemade gravy and crispy crackling?
INGREDIENTS
Serves 2-4
* Note: While this recipe is quick & easy to prepare it requires 1.5 - 2hrs of baking time.
Pork
• 750g-1kg of pork belly
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 Tbsp Salt
• 1 Carrot
• 1 Stick of Celery
• 1 Onion
• Sprig of Rosemary
• 3 Bay Leaves
• 2 Tbsp Runny Honey
Onions
• 4 Onions halved
• 1 Tbsp Oil
• Salt and Pepper
• 2-3 Bay Leaves
STEPS
1
Preheat your oven to 220°C. Pat the pork belly dry, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper and set aside.
2
Prepare your trivet by slicing a carrot, celery and onion in two and placing in the roasting tray along with some herbs. Add some boiling water to the tray and place the pork skin-side upon a rack over a roasting tray.
3
Roast the pork for 40 minutes until the skin is crispy. Keep an eye on the water level and top up if needed to prevent the veg from burning.
4
While the pork roasts, half the onions, keeping the skin on and placing in an oven proof pan, add the bay leaves, salt and pepper and oil.
5
Reduce the oven temperature to 160°C, and roast the pork for an additional 1 to 1.5 hours until tender. Place the pan with the onions in the oven for the last hour of cooking.
6
Heat the honey in a pot and brush it over the pork belly once its cooked. Allow to rest for 10 minutes.
7
Pour the roasting juices into a saucepan, add water or stock if needed, and simmer to reduce for gravy. Slice the pork and serve with caramelized onions and gravy. Enjoy!
