Hubby & I love, love, love pork crackling ...and this is a joint that came with us to Lagos all the way from home, Scotland ...and it will be simply marinated with salt + some Chinese 5-spice powder and roasted ...nothing fancy - the way we luuurve our roast pork + the crackling

The joint simply marinated with salt & Chinese 5-Spice powder and let stand for 30 minutes ...preheat oven to 230-250°C and roast the joint for 30 minutes, reduce oven heat to 180-200°C and continue to roast in accordance to weight of the joint ...25 minutes for every 500g + an additional 10 minutes ...cover with foil and let stand 10minutes before carving

The perfect roasted, juicy joint carved up ready to be served up! Yum-yummy ... and the leftovers would be tomorrow's sandwich lunch with loads of Apple Sauce slapped on

The juicy Roast Pork Crackling Joint was served up with my home-made Apple Sauce ...












































































































You can never go wrong with pork cooked slow and simply. This is especially true when you add applesauce. I’m seriously drooling…
This is such a simple dish except that because being here in Lagos, the pork joints/bellies I brought back with me tend to be kept frozen in the freezer for a while and not roasted when they are freshly bought so the skin do not crackly as well and as crispy as I want them to! I like making roasts because any leftovers is simply great for sandwiches next day over lunch or for salads
Hah! There’s German pork roast in town at the moment. All the german food stalls… Seeing this i must go get some too….
