Preparation Instructions

1

Roast the Garlic

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap the garlic cloves in aluminum foil with a drizzle of olive oil. Roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until soft and golden. Allow to cool, then squeeze out the garlic and mash it.

2

Prepare the Roasted Tomatoes

Slice the tomatoes in half, drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in the oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20-25 minutes until they are caramelized and tender.

3

Make the Roasted Garlic Aioli

In a bowl, combine the roasted garlic, mayonnaise, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy.

4

Cook the Pork Belly

In a skillet over medium heat, cook the cured pork belly until crispy and browned on both sides, approximately 5-7 minutes per side. Remove and let drain on paper towels.

5

Assemble the Belly.L.T.

On each Bibb lettuce leaf, place a piece of crispy pork belly, add some roasted tomatoes, and drizzle with roasted garlic aioli. Serve immediately.
