Description

This irresistible roasted pork belly delivers the perfect balance of tender, juicy meat and shatteringly crisp skin. Glazed with a zesty mixture of orange marmalade, red wine vinegar, and aromatic ginger, it offers a complex flavor profile that is both sweet and tangy. The dish is ideal for weekend gatherings or special family dinners where you want to impress with minimal fuss. The natural juices of the pork combine with the glaze to create a rich, sticky coating that complements the savory depth of the meat. Serve with simple roasted vegetables or mashed potatoes to soak up the delicious pan drippings. It is a hearty, satisfying centerpiece that brings warmth and comfort to any table.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180&# 194;ºC (160úC fan-forced).
  2. Place the pork belly skin-side up on a chopping board. Using a large, sharp knife, score the skin at 1cm intervals, being careful not to cut into the meat.
  3. Place the pork on a wire rack set inside a large ovenproof dish.
  4. In a jug, whisk together the orange marmalade, red wine vinegar, olive oil, minced ginger, and crushed garlic until smooth.
  5. Brush half of the marmalade mixture generously over the pork belly.
  6. Roast in the oven for 1 hour 15 minutes.
  7. Increase the oven temperature to 200úC (180úC fan-forced).
  8. Remove the dish from the oven and brush the pork with the remaining marmalade mixture.
  9. Return to the oven and roast for a further 30 minutes, or until the skin is browned, crispy, and sticky.
  10. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing to serve.

Note

For extra crispy skin, ensure the skin is completely dry before scoring and consider leaving the pork uncovered in the fridge for a few hours before cooking.

If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of chili flakes to the glaze.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven to maintain crispiness.
