Prep Time:
15 mins
Cook Time:
2 hrs
Servings:
6 servings
Ingredients
- 1,8 kg Middle cut pork belly
- 3 clementines
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1 garlic clove minced finely
- 50 ml olive oil
Instructions
-
Lightly score the skin of your pork belly into 1/2cm strips with a knife, ensuring you don’t cut too deep through the fat and into the meat.
-
Zest the clementines into a bowl, then add the salt, sugar, pepper and minced garlic, and stir to combine.
-
Flip the pork belly flesh side up, and massage the clementine rub into the meat.
-
Place the belly skin side up on top of a large square of foil. Fold the sides of the foil in to enclose the belly to form a snug foil tray.
-
Place the belly into the basket of the air fryer, skin side up and dab any excess oil from the skin, then scatter extra salt over the skin.
-
Select Roast and set the temperature to 145C and time to 1 hours.
-
When the hour has finished, pinch the foil closer around the belly as the meat will have shrunk.
-
Select Roast again and set the temperature to 155C and time to 30minutes.
-
Once the belly has finished roasting, remove from the foil tray and place back into the basket, skin side up on the grill tray.
-
Select Air Fry and set the time to 35minutes and temperature to 205C. There is no need to preheat.
-
Check the belly after 20minutes and cook until the crackling puffs and bubbles.
-
Let the belly rest for 5-10 minutes before carving.
