Slow Roasted Char Siu Pork Belly

1. Preheat oven to 110-120 degrees Celsius.

2. Wash the belly, dry, rub over the char siu sauce.

3. Place in a heavy baking dish, skin down, pour in the water and sprinkle generously with ginger and garlic, cover with aluminium foil and place in the oven.

4. Check after 1 hour to see that the temperature is not too low that nothing is happening or too high that it is cooking too fast.

5. After 5 hours the meat will be just so tender.

6. The skin will not be any good and you will have to cut it off.

7. Serve with a simple salad.
