Asian Style Belly Pork (With outstanding Crackling!)

Asian Style Belly Pork (With outstanding Crackling!), recipe, eat well on universal credit

We think this technique created the best Cracking from the lowest priced bit of Pork. If your Pork has ribs in, it’s wise to cut them out, you can always make spare ribs another day.

Ingredients:-

500g of boneless Belly Pork
Spirit Vinegar
Salt
Cumin
Five Spice
Garlic Powder
Pepper
Brown Sugar
Mixed Herbs

Method:-

(1) Turn your Pork skin side down and with a sharp knife cut almost all the way to the Rind at about 2 ½ Cm spacing in both directions. You should have a series of cubes stuck to the Rind.
(2) Mix Salt, Cumin, Five Spice, Garlic Powder, Pepper, Brown Sugar and Mixed Herbs into a dry rub.
(3) Rub this over the meat and specifically into the cuts you have made in the meat.
(4) Turn the Pork over and pat the Rind dry.
(6) Place in an over proof dish Rind side up.
(7) Massage Spirit vinegar over the Rind.
(8) Place in your Oven or Air Fryer at 98c for 30 minutes.
(9) Remove and massage Oil and Salt all over the Rind.
(10) Cook for a further 45 minutes at 200c.

It’s unlikely we’ll be doing the scoring the Rind thing again, this worked and tasted so much better. Crispy Crackling with tender and well seasoned meat beneath.

Mini Monster Turkey Burgers with Chilli Sauce

When we have a burger it’s usually an opportunity for mischief and we often end up creating some remodelled “Monster Burger” So as Sue only had ½ a home made Gluten free bun in the freezer we though we should behave and go for the “Mini Monster” version. We still didn’t eat it all. Burger for breakfast it is then!!!!

The Burgers were in the discount at £1.35 for 4. They were labelled “Thai Chilli”. Well who knows? Sue made a Chilli sauce.

Ingredients:-

Tomato Puree
Tomato Sauce
White Wine Vinegar
Fresh ground Black Pepper
Incredibly hot Chilli flakes we bought at the Continental Shop…..

We used our now memorised and almost automated Bhaji batter for the Onion Rings:-

Ingredients:-

100g Gram flour
½ tsp baking powder
½ tsp Chilli flakes
1 tsp ground Cloves
½ tsp Turmeric
Salt

The Burgers themselves had Mayo on the bun base, Salad, Gherkins, a Burger topped with Bacon, a little Chilli Sauce and melted Cheese. With the Burger repeated and then the bun lid added. The Skewer was needed or the whole thing would have collapsed, but the Onion ring on top was just for fun!

Served with a few home cut chips this whole creation was probably less than £3 for both of us…..
