Crispy Skin Roast Pork Recipes

PORK ROAST WITH CRISPY PORK CRACKLING

Steps:

• Dry skin: Pat the skin dry with paper towels. If time permits, leave in the fridge uncovered overnight (even 1 hr helps). If not, pat extra well.
• Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F (200°C fan).
• Season flesh: Sprinkle pork flesh with 1 1/2 tsp salt, all the pepper and all fennel seeds and 1 tbsp olive oil. Rub into flesh, right into all the crevices and cracks.
• Salt skin: Flip pork, drizzle skin with 1 tsp oil, then rub all over with fingers. Sprinkle all over with remaining 1 1/2 tsp salt, taking care to get even coverage. Un-salted patches will not become bubbly crackling, it will be a hard flat sheet.
• Garlic & onion bed: Place halved garlic bulbs and onion in roasting pan. Place pork skin side up on top of them.
• Wine: Carefully pour wine into the pan, being sure not to wet the skin. Transfer to oven.
• Lower oven: Immediately turn oven down to 160°C/320°F (140°C fan).
• Slow roast: Roast for 2 1/2 hours.
• Level at 1 1/2 hours: Check pork after 1 1/2 hours to see if the pork is warped and the skin's overall surface is significantly unlevelled. If so, adjust to make the skin surface as level as possible using balls of foil and moving large dislodged pork pieces to the side (key tip for crispy crackling, Note 3). Then return to oven for the remaining 1 hour.
• Check pan & salt on skin: If pan is drying out, add some water. If there are bald patches on the skin without salt (eg it fell off), spray lightly with oil spray (or brush lightly with oil) then sprinkle with salt. (Remember, salt = bubbly skin!)
• Increase heat: Turn oven up to 250°C/485°F (all oven types), or as high as it will go if your oven won't go this high.
• Make skin crisp: Return pork to oven for 30 minutes, rotating pan as needed, until skin is crisp and bubbly all over. If needed, use foil patches, secured with water soaked toothpicks, to cover parts that are done and keep crisping up remaining patches.
• Rest: Transfer pork to serving platter, tent loosely with foil (don't worry, crackling stays super-crisp) and rest for 20 minutes (stays warm up to 1 hour). Then slice using a serrated knife.
• Serve with gravy. Don't pour gravy over crackling - pour it off to the side! See note for reheating.

CRACKLING CRUST ROAST PORK WITH MOJO RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) .
• Using a sharp knife, score the pork skin and fat in a diamond pattern, spacing the cuts ½ inch apart and taking care not to cut into the meat.
• Combine the garlic and salt in a food processor and pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the olive oil, whole oregano leaves, cumin, and orange and lime zests and process into a smooth paste.
• Rub the paste all over the pork shoulder, making sure it gets into the scores. Transfer the pork shoulder to a baking dish or a roasting pan and pour the lime and orange juices around the pork. Cover the baking dish with foil.
• Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers between 180°F (82°C) and 190°F (88°C), 6-7 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and turn on the broiler.
• Uncover the pork and turn the oven to broil. Return the pork to the oven and broil until the skin puffs and is golden brown and crisp, 10-15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, pour the pan juices into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat and pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Skim off the fat, if desired. Stir the finely chopped oregano into the sauce.
• Serve the pork shoulder with the sauce and your favorite side dishes.
• Enjoy!
