Louise Clark of Nude Food café in Dungarvan has already given us some lovely recipes to try out at home. Here's one more delicious meal idea, courtesy of Louise. Tuck in!
In Nude Food, we cook pork belly that we buy from JD Power in Dungarvan, one side at a time. But for this recipe we use chunks cut from thicker slices so it makes for a quick tasty starter. This is great if you’ve had the pork belly for dinner the night before and want to use the leftover meat next day for lunch.
Instructions:
To roast the belly we put small slashes in the skin before rubbing in fennel, cumin seeds and coarse sea salt. Then we roast it in a preheated oven at 180C for an hour and a half. Remember to turn the meat halfway through, then cut the belly into chunks and dry fry it until crispy. Make a bed of salad - I love the sharpness of rocket and baby spinach and the colour of ruby chard from our garden. Dress with honey and lemon and your favourite chutney or relish.
