Roasting Belly Pork Slices

[cecil39]

I have got oh a couple of belly slices for a treat, he does not like any sort of marinade, so how long and at what temp should I roast them just plain.

i put mine in at 180 then after 15 mins turn them and give about another ten mins ( i put a little oil on them as oh likes crispy edges )if they are big you want to give them another 5mins

I dip them in beaten egg and breadcrumbs and do them in the oven at 180 approx for around 25 minutes.

I would slow roast it. Start on high heat for 20 minutes,then reduce by about 50 deg,and roast for 90 min for slices, two hours for a slab of belly pork. Make sure the skin is dry before cooking. Rub a bit of salt on it. You'll have lovely crackling....yummmmm.

The best cut in a pig is a thick end of belly. You will have to go to a proper butchers as a supermarket will not know what you are talking about. An ideal sunday roast. Weighs between 2-4 lbs
