Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Pork Belly

Preheat your oven to 160°C (320°F). Score the skin of the pork belly and season generously with salt and pepper. Place the pork belly in a roasting pan and roast for about 2 to 2.5 hours, or until the meat is tender and the skin is crispy.

2

Make the Savoy and Kohlrabi Salad

While the pork is roasting, thinly slice the savoy cabbage and combine it with the julienned kohlrabi in a bowl. Drizzle with toasted sesame oil and Rangpur lime juice. Add salt and pepper to taste, then toss to combine.

3

Prepare the Pickled Daikon

If using store-bought pickled daikon, simply drain it and set aside. If making your own, soak sliced daikon in rice vinegar, sugar, and salt for at least an hour.

4

Serve

Once the pork belly is done, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve slices of pork belly on a plate with the savoy and kohlrabi salad, pickled daikon on the side, and sprinkle crushed chicharrón on top.
