4¼ hours | 15 min prep
SERVES 4 -6
- 1 (3-5 kg) pork leg (50 minutes per kilogram at 190degrees celsius)
- 1 teaspoon dried fennel seed
- sea salt
- black pepper
- olive oil
- boiling water
- Score pork skin, best to have your butcher do this.
- Place pork in colander and pour boiling water over to open the skin. Dry thoroughly and then place in fridge for 1-2 hours.
- Remove from fridge and rub with salt -- Then mix ground fennel seeds with olive oil and rub all over pork and into slits.
- The flavour is magnificent. Use your own judgement on cooking times, but a general suggestion is around 50 minutes per kilogram in a moderate to hot oven.
