Our October 2010 Good Food magazine cover recipe in all its crispy, crackly, melt-in-the-mouth glory

Slow-roast rolled pork belly

fennel seeds

tsp black peppercorns

garlic

fresh thyme

olive oil

lemons

Toast the spices in a dry frying pan for a couple of mins. Pound them together in a pestle and mortar with some flaked sea salt, the garlic and half the thyme to make a paste, then mix with 2 tbsp olive oil.

Lay the pork on a board skin-side down. Rub the herb mix all over the flesh then scatter with the remaining whole thyme leaves. Neatly roll the meat into a joint surrounded by the skin then use butchers' string to tie the joint tightly at regular intervals to hold the joint together. Cover and chill, leaving to marinate for a few hours or overnight.

When ready to cook, rub the skin of the joint with plenty of salt and 1 tbsp remaining olive oil. Put it on a wire rack and roast at 200C/180C fan/gas 6 for 30 mins. After this time, squeeze the lemons over the skin and turn the heat down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Roast for a further 2 hrs. Finally turn the heat back up to 220C/200C fan/gas 7 and give it a final blast for another 30 mins or so, to finish the crisping of the skin. Allow to rest somewhere warm for 20 mins. Carve up into thick slices and serve with your favourite roast dinner accompaniments.

Tender and full of Asian flavor, the oven does the magic with this Slow Roasted Honey Soy Pork after your 10 minutes of hands-on time. Serve it in tacos, wraps, sandwiches, rice bowls...

Slow Roasted Honey Soy Pork

½-4 pounds boneless pork butt (see notes in post)

ginger

red pepper flakes (plus more to taste)

soy sauce

honey

rice vinegar

sesame oil

lime

lime juice

lime wedges

sesame seeds (for garnish)

cilantro basil leaves (for garnish)

Heat the oven to 300˚F. degrees. Remove any large areas of fat from the pork and discard. Cut the roast into two halves.

Combine all sauce ingredients in a large Dutch oven that has a lid. Stir well to combine. Taste, and if you’d like more heat, add another ½ teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes.

Add the two pieces of pork to the pan. Using tongs, turn to coat all sides of the pork in the sauce, and spoon some over the top. Cover, transfer to the oven and roast for 2½- 3 hours. Turn the meat to the opposite side after one hour. Repeat, turning after the second hour.

Check the meat after 2½ hours. It should shred easily with a fork. If it’s not super tender, return to the oven for another 15-30 minutes.

Using tongs, transfer the pork to a serving platter or a large shallow serving bowl. Use a ladle or large serving spoon to skim off (and discard) the excess fat on the surface of the cooking liquid remaining in the Dutch oven,

Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and let it simmer until reduced and slightly syrupy, about 6-8 minutes.

While the sauce simmers, coarsely shred the pork using two forks. Sprinkle the lime juice over the top of the meat. Drizzle about half the sauce over the top of the shredded meat, then toss to combine.

Serve over rice or noodles. Top with sesame seeds, fresh herbs, lime wedges and quick pickled red onions and cucumbers (see Café Tips above in the post on how to make quick pickled red onions and cucumbers). Pass the remaining sauce at the table, You can also use this pork in sandwiches, wraps, quesadillas, tacos, lettuce cups and on pizza.

With aromatic spices like fennel and coriander seeds, this is a winter dish for the ages.
