Easy Oven Roasted Pork Shoulder With Crackling

Pulled pork rolls with crispy crackling anyone?…

Ingredients

• 1.8kg boned and rolled pork shoulder
• Generous amount of salt (about 2 tbsp)
• 1 tbsp dried thyme
• 1-2 tbsp light olive oil (for frying)

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 160c.
2. Remove any packaging from the pork shoulder but leave the butchers string. In an oven safe dish that has a lid and wire rack down the bottom, gently place the pork shoulder in, fat side facing upwards.
3. Sprinkle your salt and thyme over the top of the pork. Place the lid on the dish and cook for 5 and a half hours.
4. Remove from the oven and turn the oven up too 200c. Move the pork over to a baking tray covered with foil (no wire rack), and brush with the oil and add some more salt (about 1 tbsp or more if you prefer).
5. Place the roast back into the oven and cook for 30-40 minutes or until crackling has crisped up.
6. Remove from the oven and rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing or pulling apart the roast. Serve up straight away.
7. Enjoy!
