Serves: 4
Ingredients
  • 500gms (1 pound) pork belly skin on thinly sliced 2mm (organic if possible)
  • salt (buy on iherb or amazon)
  • pepper (buy on iherb or amazon)
Instructions
  1. Pre-heat grill (top element) to 200 Celsius (390 Fahrenheit)
  2. Line baking sheet with baking paper
  3. Lay the bacon in one layer, don't overlap the bacon otherwise you will not get the crispy crackling. You will need to do 2 batches
  4. Individually sprinkle a pinch of salt per slice, it needs to be salty (but don't over salt!)
  5. Individually sprinkle freshly ground black pepper on each slice
  6. Place on the top rack for 6-8 minutes (check at 6 minutes as each oven is different)
  7. When the bacon is lightly golden brown (but will look slightly pale) flip over, most ovens are a little uneven, so only flip the ones that are lightly brown, rotate them in the tray if needed
  8. Don't allow to brown too much on the first side as it will cause the bacon to burn after you flip it
  9. Once flipped, check the oven every 2 minutes as the bacon progresses to brown very quick
  10. Serve immediately or allow to cool completely to pack for work or school lunch
