This is the only way to make true crackling on your pork roast. It took me years to perfect this and this is the first recipe to share on zaar Ingredients:
1 (3 -5 kg) pork legs (50 minutes per kilogram at 190degrees celsius) |
1 teaspoon dried fennel seed |
sea salt |
black pepper |
olive oil |
boiling water |
Directions:
1. Score pork skin, best to have your butcher do this.
2. Place pork in colander and pour boiling water over to open the skin. Dry thoroughly and then place in fridge for 1-2 hours.
3. Remove from fridge and rub with salt - Then mix ground fennel seeds with olive oil and rub all over pork and into slits.
4. The flavour is magnificent. Use your own judgement on cooking times, but a general suggestion is around 50 minutes per kilogram in a moderate to hot oven.
