Porchetta

SERVES 10

This porchetta is such a crowd-pleaser at dinner parties, and you’ll hear many “oohs” and “aahs” as you carve through the pork. Succulent meat, fragrant stuffing, crispy skin … heaven! Serve with a simple green salad to let the porchetta shine. You will need to start this recipe the day before.

1 x 2.5kg pork belly
80ml (⅓ cup) extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for rubbing
80g salted butter
1 large onion, finely sliced
1 garlic bulb, cloves
