Ingredients
- 1½ lb (750g) boneless pork belly For the most succulent end result, try to buy a pork belly that is at least 1inch / 2-3cm thick.
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
Instructions
- Pat the pork dry with paper towels then score the fat with a very sharp knife.
- Rub the seasonings into the meat-side.
- Season the pork belly skin with salt only, other spices are more likely to burn when exposed to the high heat.
- Place the pork, skin-side up, on a large piece of foil then fold the edges in, creating a basket for the pork. This prevents the meat from drying out while cooking while keeping the skin exposed.
- Air fry the pork for 30 minutes at 350°F/175°C then turn the heat up to 400°F/205°C and cook for another 30 minutes until the skin is crisp and golden.
- Remove the crispy pork belly from the air fryer basket then allow to rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.
