Airfried Roast Pork

It have been a long time since my last roast pork made last year.  I have always use the same recipe from a blog.  Made some roast pok for yesterday dinner to go with homemade Char Siew too.

Recipe and method adapted from: https://bakecooklove.wordpress.com

Ingredients:

Pork belly

Five spice powder

Garlic salt (i used sea salt)

Ground pepper

Method:

1. Cooked the pork belly thoroughly in water (so far the blogs i visited will blanch the pork only, pat dry, prepare skin, season and dry in the fridge overnight. but the neighborhood aunties recommended cooking thoroughly)

2. Remove from water and let it air-dry in the open (around 3 to 4 hours). Pluck excess hair if any.

3. Pat dry any excess water from the pork belly and prepare the pork skin by pricking the skin with the sharp skewer, the more holes the better (for crispier skin)

4. Lightly score the skin with a knife

5. Massage the dry rub into the meat area

6. Rub some lemon/ lime juice on the skin and followed by salt (told by neighborhood aunties)

7. Preheat the air-fryer for 5 to 10 mins at 160degree C (i laid aluminum foil underneath the basket to ‘collect’ the oil for easy washing)

8. Place the pork belly skin facing up into the air-fryer

9. Air-fry for 160degree C for 30mins, 180degree C for 30mins
