    @voodoo well, how was it?

    Doing it tonight

    ah, so that's what 'tomorrow' meant 😛 Hope it goes well

    This bloody thread creates too much pressure, especially coming off my brisket disaster...

    Have u salted and air dried the meat? I usually score the skin (knife or I have this meat tenderizer thing that is like a bunch of nails which pierces the skin), salt it and put it in the fridge uncovered for a while to dry it out. If you are cooking tonight I'd do it to improve your chances of getting crispy skin

    Oh I see the recipe calls for boiling water. That will work too. The other thing is trying to get the belly skin as level in the oven as possible. If you finish it under the grill it will help to give you a nice even crispy top.

    I like to cook chinese style pork, I also like to flavour it Italian style; salt, rosemary, fennel seeds and olive oil. It's the shiz

    And yes, I know roasted spuds have no place next to an Asian style belly, but I'm an addict.

    Looks mint. My family would beg to differ mate, spuds with almost everything in our family, including chinese roast chicken or pork, is mandatory

    In fact, rice and potatoes are standard fare when my mum cooks. Put them in the space under the meat and let them soak up all the marinade and meat fat 😋

    Beer after Curry I find oddly difficult. Might be something to do with all the beer before curry?

    It's good but it's not Fix and Fogg which is the best Peanut Butter I have ever had.

    If you see this brand over there, buy the extra crunchie! https://fixandfogg.com/

    @Hooroo was pretty amazed to see that actually, don't usually shop at Tesco but popped in as it is the only place around here to get Vegemite.

    I know, I'm taking this thread to new heights.

    Nice! I wonder if Fix and Fogg would be at Waitrose being slightly more upmarket than Tesco?

    Life is good with Vegemite.

    Both good, but severely underrated is just sticking some peanuts and a bit of peanut oil in a blender.
    Also good for those in NZ is Bin Inn, which just has a grinder and peanuts on site.

    spot on, how we make our own at home. You need a good food processor though ... brushed motors can burn out if you're not careful

    But doesn't peanut oil come from peanuts?
