This Porchetta Recipe is the one you want for next level crispy and juicy skin!!! Recipe below 👇 Ingredients * 4 kg pork belly (skin on) * 20 g salt (plus extra for outside seasoning) * 8 cloves garlic * 12 g rosemary fresh * 10 g thyme leaves * 35 g parsley fresh * Good pinch chilli seed * 1/2 tbsp ground coriander seed * Half nutmeg grated * 5 g peppercorns * 15 g fennel seed Method Butterfly the pork and make sure not to cut through to the skin or fully through the other side. You want it open like a book. Toast the fennel and black peppercorn and grind. Chop up your herbs roughly. Open your pork up skin side down. Season with salt and then all the spices. Grate over garlic. Add herbs. Try and get an even spread for everything. Roll up and tighten with butchers knot. Keep on a rack in the fridge uncovered for up to 2 days to really dry out the skin. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Cook for 2–3 hours. Internal temperature should reach 68–70°C (155–158°F). Probe from the side for accuracy. Increase oven temperature to 450F (232c). Roast for 15–25 minutes until the skin crisps and crackles. Rotate often (about 3 times) to avoid burning.
