Slice Pork Belly to a slab large enough to fit in your pan, and score the skin side every 1 cm in a cross hatch pattern (see the finished piece where the scoring pattern is more obvious) with a sharp knife down to the beginning of the flesh level.
rub the skin with the olive oil making sure to push it into the scores. Then Salt the skin liberally and again push it into the cracks.
Halve two small onions to use as a trivet to elevate the pork belly so that hot air can move around it and liquid can fall off it. Place the pork belly on the onions skin side up.
Cook in a hot oven for 15 minutes – the hottest ours goes to is around 250C ( 500F )
Now turn down the oven temp to 180C ( 350F ) and cook for 90 minutes.
Remove the pork belly and rest it on a board for 5 mins.
You can now slice the pork belly up into portions, and use what is left of the onions and the pork juices at the bottom of the pan to make a Jus. We added a small amount of sugar free maple syrup – special ingredient.
