Stuffed Pork Belly
Ingredients
2 pounds pork belly (raw, not too fatty)
1 yellow turnip [substitute carrot]
1 onion
5 cloves garlic
plain breadcrumbs (3 1/2 ounce)
1 bunch parsley
smoked ham, diced (3 1/2 ounce)
ground meat (3 1/2 ounce)
1 Tbsp. marjoram
1 onion, finely chopped, and sauteed till transparent
salt and pepper to taste
Cooking Instructions
Cut a pocket into the pork belly, and lightly season the inside. Combine the stuffing ingredients and mix well. Stuff the pork belly with this mixture, then sew the opening shut with cooking twine. Score the fatty rind with a knife. Rub the pork belly all around with seasonings. Roast, along with the sliced turnip, until crispy. The meat will have to be turned and basted several times.
