Lovers of crispy skin roast pork belly that just crackle in your mouth.
1) Make diamond shaped slits on top of the skin only (be sure not to cut through to the meat). This is for the salt to penetrate through.
2) Boil 2 cups of water and add 4 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Shower this mix on top of the skin only until the skin is slightly cooked (turns pinkish colour).
3) Rub 1/2 teaspoon of Five Spice powder all over the meat, except the skin.
4) Sprinkle some salt over the skin.
5) Wrap around the meat (4 sides except the skin) with aluminium foil and keep in a plate/container. WITH the skin exposed, put inside the fridge for about 2-3 days. Once the skin has dried it's ready to roast.
6) Place into the oven at 180-deg Celsius for about an hour. Be sure to have place the pork on top of a rack so the oil can drip down.
7) Let the pork cool slightly after roasting. Slice alongside the slits and chop into bite size pieces.
