Roasted Pork Belly with Honey

PREP TIME: 4 hrs | COOK TIME: 1 hr | TOTAL TIME: 5 hrs | SERVINGS: 4

This recipe is a simplified version of roasted pork belly. This requires basic home cooking sauce for well-flavored roasted pork. I suggest marinating the pork a little longer for the best results. You can make the preparation the day before and marinate for 24 to 48 hours.

If desired, simmer the marinating sauce for about 4 to 5 minutes and serve this as a dip. You can also drizzle this on top of the pork belly before serving. This optional step guarantees to strengthen the taste. You can skip this step, but I recommend you try it.

Serve this mouthwatering roasted pork belly with honey at your next family dinner party.
