INGREDIENTS
- ± 1.5 kg pork belly (with bone),
- 2 medium onion, cut into rings,
- 6 cloves (or a pinch of grounded cloves),
- 1 handful of sage leaves (or replace it with rosemary/thyme),
- 30 ml coarse salt,
- 15 ml baking powder,
- 1 x 330 ml apple beer (Savanna/Savanna Light),
- baby potatoes (optional).
Put the onion rings in the Large Classic Roaster / Large Oval Roaster. Sprinkle them with either sage, rosemary or thyme and cloves. Pour the apple beer over the onions.
Use a sharp knife and make several cuts across the skin of the pork belly (cut through the skin and fat but not into the meat). Sprinkle the baking powder and salt over and rub it over the skin and into the notches with your fingers (The baking powder ensures deliciously crispy skin).
Place the pork belly with the skin side up, on top of the onions in the Large Classic/Oval Roaster.
Turn on the oven and bake for 2½ – 3 hours at 160ºC. Add the baby potatoes for the last hour. Bake until brown and crispy. Serve with salad and pickled quinces.

BESTANDDELE:
- ± 1,5 kg varkpens (met been),
- 2 middelslag uie, in ringe gesny,
- 6 naeltjies (of ‘n knippie gemaalde naeltjies),
- ‘n handvol salieblare (of vervang dit met roosmaryn/tiemie),
- 30 ml growwe sout,
- 15 ml bakpoeier,
- 1 x 330 ml appelbier (Savanna/Savanna Light),
- baba-aartappels (opsioneel).
Sit die uieringe in die Large Classic Roaster / Large Oval Roaster. Sprinkel hulle met óf salie, roosmaryn of tiemie en naeltjies. Gooi die appelbier oor die uie.
Gebruik ‘n skerp mes en sny verskeie snye oor die vel van die varkpens (sny deur die vel en vet, maar nie in die vleis nie). Sprinkel die bakpoeier en sout oor en vryf dit met jou vingers oor die vel en in die kepe in (die bakpoeier sorg vir ‘n heerlike bros vel).
Plaas die varkpens met die velkant na bo, bo-op die uie in die Large Classic/Oval Roaster.
Skakel die oond aan en bak vir 2½ – 3 uur by 160ºC. Voeg die baba-aartappels vir die laaste uur by. Bak tot bruin en bros. Sit voor met slaai en ingelegde kwepers.
