Slow Cooked Belly Of Pork With Caramelized Shallots Recipe
Ingredients
| Pork belly 1.5 kg piece, with bones, skin scored | ||
| Shallots | 16 Large | |

Directions
Put the pork skin side upon a rack in a large roasting tray and cook in a cool oven-150C/fan 130C/gas 2 for about 3 1/2 hours.
Meanwhile, put the shallots (with skin) in a pan, cover with water and bring to a simmer.
