SLOW-COOKED PORK BELLY
The fat renders out in the long, slow cooking, leaving behind moist, flavourful meat and crisp crackling. From Olive Magazine. Serve with roasted potatoes and a huge, tossed, green salad with a vinaigrette dressing for a delicious meal. Prep time is about 30 minutes and whatever amount of time you marinate.

Steps:
- Combine all the ingredients (apart from the pork) in either a food processor or a pestle and mortar, then rub them well into the skin of the pork belly . Leave it somewhere cool to marinate for as long as you can bear (between 1 hour and 2 days).
- Preheat your oven to 110C/fan 90C/gas 1/4 or as low as it will go. Roast the pork for 3 hours. Check to make sure it's not pink. If it is, give it a bit longer.
- Lastly, for your Maillard reaction, whack the oven up to 240C/fan 220C/gas 9 or as high as it will go and roast for 10-15 minutes or until crisp.
- Let the belly rest but not for more than 10 minutes and serve.
