Step 1

Score the rind length ways. Rind can be quite hard to cut through, so you will have to carefully use a sharp knife. Make sure to only cut the rind, and not to cut through to the fat and meat underneath.

Step 2

Pat the rind dry with a paper towel, and salt generously. Make sure to rub salt into the cuts you just made. Then, leave the pork roast to rest uncovered in a refrigerator skin side up for around 24 hours. Make sure to have a look at it once or twice while it rests, and wipe off any liquid that appears. This will ensure that the rind dries out completely.

Step 3

Preheat your air fryer to 400 F / 200 C.

Step 4

Transfer the pork roast to the air fryer, skin side up, and air fry until the internal temperature of the pork is 145 F / 63 C. The exact roasting time will vary, but you can find suggested times in the table below.

Step 5

Remove the cooked pork roast from the air fryer, and leave it for about 15 minutes before you carve and serve.
