Ingredients
Method
1.Preheat oven to 200°C.
2.Oil the base of a roasting dish and cover with the leeks, fennel and apple juice.
3.Rub the salt and pepper into the pork meat, then place it on top of the vegetable trivet. This stops the bottom from stewing. Sprinkle extra salt on the skin.
4.Cook for 20 minutes to get it going, then cover tightly with foil, reduce oven to 150°C and cook for a further 2 hours.
5.Uncover, add apples and prepared assorted vegetables around the pork. Cook for 45 minutes, then for 5-15 minutes under a hot grill to get the crackling to pop. Watch carefully that it doesn’t burn.
6.Serve from the dish with greens such as peas, beans and spinach or silverbeet.
