Dan Barber's Pork Belly

This exquisite pork belly recipe focuses on patience and precision to achieve a melt-in-the-mouth texture. By curing the meat for three days before a long, slow braise, the flavours deepen significantly, resulting in a savoury depth that is rarely found in quicker methods. It is a celebratory way to prepare this popular cut, ensuring the meat remains succulent while providing the perfect base for a crisp, golden finish.

As a naturally dairy-free main course, this dish is ideal for an impressive weekend dinner party or a sophisticated Sunday roast alternative. The overnight cooking process does most of the hard work for you, leaving you with tender portions that only require a quick sear in a frying pan to reach perfection. Serve alongside seasonal greens and a light jus for a truly balanced meal.
