Nothing pairs better with slow-cooked pork belly than a bed of fragrant and fluffy jasmine rice, some high-value greens (baby broccoli, spring onion and Asian greens to be precise) and a gorgeous Sichuan garlic sauce that is slathered over the pork for maximum flavour!

• Preheat oven to 240ºC/220ºC fan-forced. • Pat slow-cooked pork belly dry using a paper towel. Drizzle with olive oil, then rub over a good pinch of salt. • Place pork, fat-side up, on a foil-lined oven tray. Roast until lightly browned, 20-25 minutes. • Turn oven grill to high heat. Grill pork until skin is golden and crispy, 15 minutes.
TIP: Spread slow-cooked pork belly over two lined oven trays if your tray is getting crowded.
• While the pork is roasting, finely chop garlic. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
• Meanwhile, roughly chop Asian greens. Trim and roughly chop baby broccoli. Thinly slice spring onions. • Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook baby broccoli until tender, 4-5 minutes. • Add Asian greens and garlic paste and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a small heatproof bowl, microwave the Sichuan garlic paste in 10 second bursts until fragrant. • Divide garlic rice between plates. Top with garlic veggies and roast pork belly. • Drizzle Sichuan garlic paste over pork. Garnish with spring onions to serve. Enjoy!
