ROASTED PORK BELLY WITH WARM POTATOES AND A CELERY RADISH SALAD
Steps:
- For the pork belly: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Sprinkle the pork belly liberally with equal parts salt and sugar. Place the pork belly on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast for about 1 hour.
- Once the pork belly is done, cool and set aside. Reserve the fat from the pan to be used in the potato salad. Once cooled, portion the belly into 3/4-inch by 3-inch slices.
- Meanwhile, heat a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
- While the pork belly's roasting, make the vinaigrette for the celery and radish salad. Combine the red wine vinegar, Dijon, and red onions in a food processor. Slowly add in the vegetable oil to emulsify. Season with salt and pepper.
- For the potato salad: In a frying pan, start with a little of the reserved pork fat. Add the shallots, potatoes, grainy mustard and red wine vinegar. Saute until warmed through. Finish with the chopped chives, salt and pepper.
- For the celery and radish salad: Toss the radishes and celery in the vinaigrette. Top with celery leaves.
- For the dipping sauce: Combine the soy, hot sauce and red wine vinegar.
- Deep fry the pork belly portions in the hot oil until nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Remove and dip in the glaze. Slice and serve with the salads.
ROAST PORK AND POTATOES
Meet the Cook: We used to raise our own hogs. This recipe was given me by a fellow farmer who also had pork on the dinner table a couple of times a week. I'm a dietitian at the local VA hospital. Cooking, of course, is one of my top pastimes! My husband and I have four children and one grandson. -Denise Collins, Chillicothe, Ohio
