Method

  1. 1

    Season the pork belly with salt, cumin and garlic.

  2. 2

    Fry skin-side down in a hot, dry pan for 8–10 minutes until deeply golden and crisp.

  3. 3

    Turn and cook for a further 4–5 minutes until cooked through. Rest for 2 minutes, then slice.

  4. 4

    Serve over the rice with sliced avocado, red onion, coriander and lime wedges.

Use up the rest

Cooking this for one leaves 25 g coriander, ½ avocado and 100 g cooked rice. These recipes finish them off, so plan one later in the same week.

Good with the rest of your week
