The idea for this was to make a snack, inspired by Chinese style spare ribs, where the pork belly was flavoured with a marinade and oven cooked.
Ingredients:
3 strips of pork belly (reduced from £1.04 to 45p)
For the marinade:
Soy sauce
Half a red chilli, finely chopped
Clove of garlic, finely chopped
Ginger (I used a tsp from a jar of ready mulched ginger)
Brown sugar (sprinkle a couple of tsps)
Lemon juice
Spoon the marinade over the pork belly and leave for a few hours or overnight.
I cooked the pork belly dry, so took it out of the marinade and put the strips onto a cast iron skillet.
Cook at about 180 for approx 25 minutes. A delicious spicy 'rib style' snack!
Total cost: 45p (everything else was 'store cupboard')
