Recipe Preparation

1. Score the fat layer of each piece of pork belly by making diagonal slices 2ā€ apart and Ā¼ā€ deep. Make sure not to cut too deeply into the fat layer to prevent the belly from coming apart while roasting.

2.Ā Turn the pork belly over so the lean side is facing up. Spread 113 g of porchetta herb paste over the top of each pork belly.

3.Ā Slice the 2 pork loins in half widthwise. Carefully butterfly the pork loins lengthwise, leaving it hinged on one side. Spread 113 g of porchetta herb paste on the inside of each pork loin. Fold the loin back over the top of the paste. Press together firmly.

4. Place the pork loin on top of the herb side of the pork belly. Tightly tie the pork belly to the pork loin with butcherā€™s twine. Space the loops 1ā€ apart.

5.Ā Place roasting racks in pans. Place the roast on the racks with the scored side of the pork belly up. Place in a heated 204Ā°C (400ĀŗF) convection oven for 1 hour. Reduce heat to 148Ā°C (300ĀŗF) for 45-50 minutes or until 65Ā°C (150ĀŗF) internal temperature is reached.

6.Ā Allow to rest 1 hour. Cover and refrigerate for 24 hours before slicing. Remove butcherā€™s twine. Slice into 284 g portions for service. Place slices in a storage container in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

7.Ā Trim the carrots and fennel. Slice the carrots on the bias Ā¼ā€ thick. Slice the fennel in half lengthwise. Remove the core. Slice lengthwise Ā¼ā€ thick. Keep vegetables separate. Place in a stainless-steel mixing bowl. Drizzle 31 ml of olive oil over the top of each vegetable. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
