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.

Asian Pork Chops

Yellow Sticker Pork Chops got the 'Asian recipe' treatment last night!

Ingredients:-

Pork Chops

Marinade Ingredients:-

60ml of Soy Sauce
¼ Tsp of ground White Pepper
1 Tsp of Toasted Sesame Oil
1 Tbsp of Cornflour
½ Tsp of Five Spice
1 Tsp of Shaoxing Wine
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
1 Tsp of Fresh Ginger, minced
½ a Tbsp of Brown Sugar
Oil to fry
Pak Choi, halved lengthways
Long grain Rice

Method:-

(1) Combine all the marinade ingredients in a bowl and add the Pork Chops.
(2) Marinade for 30 minutes.
(3) In a large frying pan add the Oil and then sear the Chops with the marinade on both sides. Don’t over cook them as the have very little fat and can become quite tough.
(4) Boil and drain your rice and set aside.
(5) Remove the Chops and place under the grill on a very low heat to keep warm.
(6) Place the Pak Choi in the pan with the remaining marinade and cooking juices, cut side down and fry until slightly browns.
(7) Run boiling water through your Rice and then plate the Pak Choi, Chops and Rice.
(8) Pour the remaining cooked marinade over your chops.

The Chops were £1.79 for 4 and the only other ingredient we needed to but (because we’re experimenting with Asian recipes) were the Pak Choi. So well under budget and really tasty!
