Ingredients
- 300 g pork belly rolls
- 1 tsp fennel seeds
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 pieces rosemary
- 1 tsp salt
Method
- Preheat the oven to 220°C (425°F) to ensure it reaches the correct temperature before roasting.
- Lay the pork belly rolls flat and rub them thoroughly with salt, fennel seeds, and rosemary, pressing the seasonings firmly into the meat.
- Add the garlic cloves alongside the seasoned pork belly rolls in a roasting pan, distributing them evenly for aromatic infusion during cooking.
- Roll the pork belly tightly and secure with kitchen twine to hold the porchetta shape throughout roasting.
- Place the porchetta in the preheated oven and roast at 220°C for 28 minutes until the exterior is golden and the fat is rendered and crispy.
- Remove the porchetta from the oven and allow it to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to let the juices redistribute evenly.
