Roast Pork With Extra Crackling

1. 1

   Bring rack of pork and pork belly to room temperature; pat dry with paper towels. Preheat the oven to 450u00b0F.

2. 2

   Lightly oil skin on rack and belly and sprinkle with sea salt. Heat 2 tbsp oil in large shallow roasting pan on high heat. Add pork skin-side up. Transfer to oven and roast for 1 hour or until juices are pale rosy. After 35-40 mins, once skin has crackled, reduce oven temperature to 400u00b0F. Do not baste. Transfer to a cutting board to rest; do not cover.

3. 3

   Drain off all but 1 1/2 tbsp fat from roasting pan. Stir in flour. Stir on medium heat to let roux brown a little. Add half the stock, stirring with a spatula to break up lumps. Stir in remaining stock and bring to a boil. Cook gently for 2 mins. Add salt to taste; keep warm.

4. 4

   Slice pork thinly and arrange on a heated platter. Cut pork belly into chunks and serve separately. Pour gravy into a gravy boat. Serve with apple sauce, potatoes and a green vegetable such as broccoli.
