Crisp Chinese pork is a Cheap cut recipe for 4 people, takes only 20 mins; recipe has pork belly, chinese five-spice powder and soy sauce.
Ingredients
- Spring Onion - 1 spring onion, finely chopped
- Soy Sauce - 4 tbsp soy sauce (we used Kikkoman)

Instructions
- Rub the pork with the five-spice and 2 tsp sea salt then leave, uncovered, in the fridge for at least 2 hrs, but preferably overnight. When ready to cook, heat oven to its maximum setting. Lay the pork on a rack over a roasting tin, making sure the skin is exposed. Roast for 10 mins before turning down the heat to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4, then leave to cook for a further 1 1/2 hrs. Have a look at the pork - if the skin isn't crisp, turn up the heat to 220C/fan 200C/gas 7, then cook for another 30 mins until crisp. Leave to rest on a board for at least 10 mins.
- To make the dipping sauce, mix all the ingredients together with 2 tbsp water. Cut the pork into small pieces, then serve with the sauce, plus boiled rice and steamed greens, if you like.
