4. Using a pastry brush, smear the mixture on the flesh side of the pork belly, taking care not to get any mixture on the rind side. Also cover both side of the rib bone section removed earlier with the mixture.

5. Preheat oven to 250 degC. Place belly rind side up on a foil lined baking sheet, alongside the rib section. Sprinkle some coarsely ground salt onto the rind and grill for 20 minute.

6. Turn down the heat to 160 degC and roast for 40 minutes. Roasting Vegetables such as sweet potatoes, carrots, mushrooms etc can be added to the same baking sheet at this time if desired.
