Pork Belly

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Belly

    Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F). Score the skin of the pork belly in a crosshatch pattern, being careful not to cut into the meat. Rub the salt and black pepper all over the pork belly.

  2. 2

    Marinate

    In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, mirin, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Pour this mixture over the pork belly and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Roast

    Place the marinated pork belly on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast in the oven for about 2 hours, or until the meat is tender and the skin is crispy.

  4. 4

    Rest and Slice

    Once cooked, let the pork belly rest for 15 minutes before slicing it into thick pieces. Garnish with chopped green onions.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Add the sliced pork belly to your ramen bowl and enjoy!
