Pork Belly and Accompaniments

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork Belly

    Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Score the skin of the pork belly in a crosshatch pattern and rub salt all over it. Place it in a roasting pan.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork Belly

    Roast the pork belly in the preheated oven for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the skin is crispy and the meat is tender. Baste with hoisin sauce during the last 30 minutes of cooking.

  3. 3

    Pickle the Vegetables

    In a bowl, combine rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Stir until dissolved. Add the julienned daikon and carrots to the mixture and let them pickle for at least 30 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Slice the pork belly and serve it with the pickled daikon and carrots on the side. Drizzle with Kewpie mayonnaise and additional hoisin sauce if desired.
