Roasted Pork Belly

This succulent Pork Belly with Garlic Dipping Sauce is a simple yet flavorful dish that highlights the rich, crispy texture of pork belly paired with a tangy garlic sauce. The pork belly is cooked slowly in its own fat, ensuring a tender and juicy bite, while the garlic dipping sauce—made with fresh garlic, sugar, salt, and vinegar—adds a bright, zesty contrast. What makes this recipe special is the hands-off cooking method: the pork belly is seared in a cold pot, allowing the fat to render perfectly for a crispy exterior. A sprinkle of salt, sugar, and black pepper enhances the natural umami flavors, while a final drizzle of soy sauce adds depth. Sliced and served with the aromatic garlic sauce, this dish is an irresistible balance of savory, sweet, and tangy. Perfect as an appetizer or main course, it’s a must-try for pork lovers!
