Snow & Slow Roast Pulled Pork


Hampstead Heath Snow Day


Slow Roast Belly Of Pork

Slice into the fat/ score it, not too deep and about 1.5cm apart then rub rock salt into the slices and add fresh black pepper.
This still had bones in & it's best and more flavoursome if you cook the pork belly with them.
Put the pork with just salt & pepper on into an oven at 220 for 25mins then slow roast on 130/140 for 5hrs.
If the skins not crispy enough when you want to serve turn the oven to grill (not up too high but high enough that after 15/20mins the fat is crispy and not just on the surface-also you don't want to just burn the top of the skin)
Let the meat rest for at least 15mins before serving.
With two forks pull the meat apart-shredding it.
SO GOOD!!!! EVERY TIME



1 x white onion finely sliced/cubed to garnish (sounds too much but it's yum and works so well with the melted cheese and hot meat)
Finely sliced spring onions....just because!!
Coriander but I LOVE it.



Guacamole 
3 x really ripe avocados
2 ripe (really deep red) tomatoes or cherry tomatoes -so they're sweet
2 x Fresh limes squeezed 
1/2 finely sliced red onion
Rock Salt
Black Pepper
Big glug of red wine vinegar
- Make sure you keep tasting, you've got to get the balance across all the flavours just right
I like mine lumpy so I just dice everything you can mush yours if you want- your shout!



Can you see how moist it is...and then how crispy the crackling it!!!!


Coleslaw-
White cabbage finely shredded long ways
3 carrots grated
big glug of white wine vinegar
big dollop of mayo
salt & pepper (add white pepper too, it's yum with this)



FIT Egg Fried Rice- for 6 people easily
Cook your rice first
Whisk 4 eggs in a bowl and add to a wok with a big glug of sunflower oil, a big dash a fish sauce, a bigger dash of light soy sauce and cook up the egg a bit on a high heat, add the rice once the egg looks sloppy but cooked. Give it all a good stir add a tsp of sugar and cook it up a bit. Add whatever beans you want then garnish with spring onions and coriander. Make sure the rice is wet enough and not too sticky, have a good taste so the balance is right.


The guys on the bullshot a warm vodka, gravy type broth drink


When  making up the rap of your life, add two types of grated cheese, a good spread of sour cream or philidelphia , then add your hot pulled pork, guacamole, coleslaw, egg fried rice and extra onion, spring onion and coriander. I want to eat this again and right now....MAKE THIS!!



YUM


Don't be shy with your portions, fold up one end then roll in the sides and get it in your gob.
