I made this yesterday. Just a few tips. The heavy pot over the belly squeezes out a lot of the layers of fat while roasting. If you like the layers of fat, you may want to choose another recipe. When you flip the belly after an hour, the skin will be soft. You will need to assist the crackling process by moving the meat closer to the top element of your oven. You may even need to switch to the grill mode and increase the temperature. But watch it closely because it will easily burn. Hope this helps.

Having my grandson overnight this weekend so I am making this tonight ..your dishes always turn out so well and I just love your videos with your Mother ,as well.😋😋😋
I've been trying a number of your recipes over the past few weeks ..each time I make something new I'm saying it's the best thing I've ever cooked...your dumplings and wanton soup are phenomenal. Off to buy some pork belly, cant wait to try it
There is literally something so soothing about your voice. They way you explain your recipes is just so relaxing and makes it that much easier and enjoyable to make something new for dinner. Tried this technique with my pork belly and it's how I will keep making them. So so good! Thanks marion!

Thank you Marion, you are really a fabulous chef with wonderful ideas. Love the idea of the Stanley knife. I saw one of these flat porks last week, didn’t buy it as l didn’t know what to do with it. Can’t wait to try this, 😋 yum
Marion, I know this is one of your older recipes and you have a lot more pork belly recipes since. But my goodness, this recipe is top tier, super-God level perfect. And it's one of the simplest, most straightforward recipes out there. So glad I finally tried it tonight. Will use this until the end of time ✨

Thanks for the video! I always had issues with the excess liquids and watching out not to dry the meat out, most of the time others recommend just surrounding it with tinfoil, some expert chefs like ramsay who focus too much on everything else and then get a not so crispyy more chewy skin. Just doing the first upside down part helped alot.
Wow. This looks super easy. I hope I can make this. Crossing my fingers. Your website is amazing too. Thank You.

knotkool1 it was on her description box...which takes you to her site👍INSTRUCTIONS STEP 1 First up, you need to prepare the pork belly…this is a crucial step to achieve crispy crackling. Pat dry your pork belly with paper towel. Take a very sharp knife (a sharp utility or stanley knife works well) and cut lines across the pork skin about 1 cm apart. You want to cut through the skin and but only a couple of millimeters into the fat underneath. Now rub the skin with about a tablespoon of salt. Sit your pork belly on a baking tray and chill in the fridge (uncovered) for at least 2 hours (overnight is even better). STEP 2 Preheat oven to 200°C/390°F. STEP 3 Pat dry the pork skin with paper towel. Rub the skin with a little oil and sprinkle with a little extra salt. Place the pork belly skin side down in a roasting dish. Top with baking paper and place an oven-proof weight on top (a cast iron pan or a heavy casserole dish will work well). Roast the pork belly for 1 hour. Then remove the weight and baking paper and turn pork belly over so it is skin-side up. Roast for a further 10 minutes.
Wow...never seen this technique before! 👏✨✨

The principal is that the fat renders out, then it deep fries the skin in its own fat. It definitely works :-)
I just watched a super famous TV chef who couldn't achieve this. Women cooks rock.
This method worked great! I’d recommend put the oven on broil for the last 10 mins though.
Followed the recipe (left overnight) and it turned out perfect! Just like at dim sum. Doing it again tonight!

Thanks Marion. I tried this and it is successful and very delicious.
The first time I tried this it came out BEAUTIFULLY. The second time the skin stuck to the pan, it was chewy and got way too dark, even though I did exactly the same thing, even allowing the salt to withdraw more moisture from the skin. I wonder what went wrong. Could I bake it on a metal baking pan instead? Or put parchment in the bottom of the pan?

Was tentative with this method as I've cooked it other ways with great success. Should have gone with my gut and gone with the old method. This method didn't work. Ended up with a soft, rubbery and 'gluey' skin. Almost resembled the rind off bacon. Had to broil it to try to try and get some crackling out of it, but it has dried out the meat.

To get the belly lay flat when roasting normally 1 would poke the belly with metal skewer. Never thought of using a heavy weight tray and baking paper. Very good improvised tutorial..

Just as a heads up, I tried this the other day, and it didn't work. My feeling is that my oven just doesn't get hot enough to crackle the skin. Instead, i just removed the pork and pan-fried it for five minutes, it worked a treat anyway!

If your skin is soggy, it sounds like the pork may not have dried out enough and has released juices. Also, perhaps the oven wasn’t hot enough. After taking it out I have found I need to move it one rung higher to the grill and heat increased to 210°, perfect every time I’ve tried this.
